~ The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intention ~  ~ Every thought I have imprisioned in expression I must free by my deeds.
~ ~ Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. ~ ~ You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each of you be alone,
Even as the strings of the lute are alone though they quiver
with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hands of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow. ~ ~ Coming generations will learn equality from poverty, and love from woes. ~ ~ He who understands you is greater kin to you than your own brother. For even your own kindred neither understand you nor know your true worth. ~ ~ Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy. ~ ~ Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which you need more than I do. ~ ~ Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary. ~ ~ He who requires urging to do a noble act will never accomplish it ~ ~ The very strength that protects the heart from injury is the strength that prevents the heart from enlarging to its intended greatness within. The song of the voice is sweet, but the song of the heart is the pure voice of heaven. ~ ~ If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. ~ ~ There is a space between man's imagination and man's attainment that may only be traversed by his longing ~ ~ Let there be space in your togetherness ~ ~ Let there be spaces in your togetherness. ~ Most Popular Topics:
