gently down the stream

merrily merrily merrily merrily

life is but a dream

Teach only Love,

For that is what you are.

 The Snow Goose need not bathe

to make itself white.

Neither need you do anything

but be yourself.

Lao Tse

Men go abroad to wonder at the height of mountains,

at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers,

at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars;

and they pass by themselves with out wondering.

Saint Augustine

When you want something,

all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

The Alchemist

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

Otto Rank

Life is meant to be extraodinary,

our bodies are meant to be vital,

and like a candle, burn brightly until their final moment.

Within each of us lies the power of our consent to health and to sickness,

to riches and to poverty, to freedom and to slavery.

It is we who control these things and not another.

Richard Bach

And you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.” Richard Bach, Illusions

“Walk on a rainbow trail; walk on a trail of song, and all about you will be beauty. There is a way out of every dark mist, over a rainbow trail.” Edward A. Navajo

“A small boy looked at a star and began to weep. The star said, 'Boy, why are you weeping?' And the boy said, 'You are so far away I will never be able to touch you.' And the star answered, 'Boy, if I were not already in your heart, you would not be able to see me.' ” John Magliola

Faith is an oasis in the heart
which can never be reached by the caravan of thinking.
~ Kahlil Gibran ~

 What you see
is evidence of what you believe.
Believe it and you'll see it.
~ Dr Wayne W Dyer ~

It is better to believe than to disbelieve;
in so doing, you bring everything
to the realm of possibility.
~ Albert Einstein ~

You pray in your distress and in your need;
would that you might pray also in the fullness of your joy
and in your days of abundance.

~ Kahlil Gibran ~

For those who believe,
No proof is necessary.
For those who don't believe,
No proof is possible.
~ Author Unknown ~

Doubt is a pain
too lonely to know
that faith is his twin brother.

~ Kahlil Gibran ~

 Faith...
When you come to the edge of all the light you have,
and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown,
faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on,
or you will be taught how to fly.
~ Patrick Overton ~

‘One new perception,
one fresh thought,
one act of surrender,
one change of heart,
one leap of faith,
can change your life forever.’

~ Robert Holden - Author & Psychologist
from the book, 'Shift Happens!'

"I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing
than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance"
~ e. e. cummings

i carry your heart with me

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

you have to believe it to see it

I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small
as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain,
"Move from here to there" and it will move.
Nothing will be impossible to you.
- Matthew 17:20

Faith consists in believing when it is beyond
the power of reason to believe. It is not enough
that a thing be possible for it to be believed.
- Voltaire

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find;
knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone
who asks receives, he who seeks finds; and to him who
knocks, the door will be opened.
- Matthew 7:7-8

"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth,
if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the
sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he
says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you,
whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received
it, and it will be yours."
- Mark 11:22-24

We are not human beings on a spiritual journey.
We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
- Stephen Covey

He who has hope has everything.
- Arabian Proverb

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.
- Emily Dickenson

Hope is like a bird that senses the dawn and carefully
starts to sing while it is still dark.
- Anonymous

dream like children do

A BOAT, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July--

Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear--

Long has paled that sunny sky;
Echoes fade and memories die;
Autumn frosts have slain July.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.

Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.

In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die;

Ever drifting down the stream--
Lingering in the golden gleam--
Life, what is it but a dream?

walking in a winter wonderland

I wonder if the snow

loves the trees and fields,

that it kisses them so gently?

And then it covers them up snug,

you know, with a white quilt;

and perhaps it says

“Go to sleep, darlings,

till the summer comes again."

~ Alice in Wonderland

the world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful

maggie and milly and molly and may
went down to the beach(to play one day)

and maggie discovered a shell that sang
so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and

milly befriended a stranded star
whose rays five languid fingers were;

and molly was chased by a horrible thing
which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

may came home with a smooth round stone
as small as a world and as large as alone.

For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)
it's always ourselves we find in the sea
