a sheer mystery.

Laugh at yourself and at life.
Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity,
but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain,
cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective
that seemingly terrible defeat and worry
with laughter at your predicaments,
thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution
that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.
- Og Mandino

Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another,

One of the greatest titles we can have is "old friend."
We never appreciate how important old friends are until we are older.
The problem is we need to start our old friendships when we are young.
We then have to nurture and grow those friendships over our middle age
when a busy life and changing geographies
can cause us to neglect those friends.
Today is the day to invest in those people
we hope will call us "old friend" in the years to come.
- Grant Fairley

One of the greatest cause of unhappiness -

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

When your friends begin to flatter
you on how young you look,
it's a sure sign you're getting old.

Choose to be as a young child -
fully awake, eager for the next experience.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

How far you go in life depends on you being
tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving
and tolerant of the weak and the strong.
Because someday in life you will have been all of these.
- George Washington Carver

If I were to wish for anything,
I should not wish for wealth and power,
but for the passionate sense of potential -

Pleasure disappoints; possibility never.
- Soren Kierkegaard

To be seventy years young is sometimes
far more cheerful and hopeful

to improve himself in every way he can,

Consciously adopt the mindset of a young child,

It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion

I honor you, Hero, for you do not play to the crowd.
You play to your own soul.
An audience of one fills the house with its appreciation and applause.
Others follow you, and may attempt to emulate you,
but that is not why you are a hero.
Fame may smile upon you, or it may not.
The world may cheer your name, or you may be the unknown warrior
who rescued comrades in battle,
or taught a young girl how to shed tears of joy.
Whatever you did, you did not do for fame.
If you had, you would not be a Hero.
You are a Hero for your bold courageous inspired action.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Mind can never be intelligent - only no-mind is intelligent.
Only no-mind is original and radical.
Only no-mind is revolutionary - revolution in action.
The mind gives you a sort of stupor.
Burdened by the memories of the past,
burdened by the projections of the future,
you go on living - at the minimum.
You dont live at the maximum.
Your flame remains very dim.
Once you start dropping thoughts,
the dust that you have collected in the past,
the flame arises - clean, clear, alive, young.
Your whole life becomes a flame,
and a flame without any smoke.
That is what awareness is.
- Osho

A young man who does not have what
it takes to perform military service
is not likely to have what

tomorrow's hard-core unemployed.

rather than for our own.

However rare true love may be,
it is less so than true friendship.

Tis the privilege of friendship to talk nonsense,
and have her nonsense respected.

is like a photograph; with time it fades.

when one person says to another,
"What! You too? I thought I was the only one."

A true friend is someone who
thinks that you are a good egg
even though he knows that
you are slightly cracked.

not in the number of things friends can discuss,
