Thought for Today

[Meanderer]

 

[Knightofalbion]

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear , an honest compliment or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around
- Leo Buscaglia

 

[Knightofalbion]

Kindness can transform someone's dark moment with a blaze of light. You'll never know how much your caring matters
- Amy Leigh Mercree

 

[Oceana]

Everything you can imagine is real - Picasso (scary thought!)

 

[Meanderer]

 

[Knightofalbion]

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding that fills them with compassion, gentleness and a deep, loving concern.
Beautiful people do not just happen.
- Dr Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

 

[Knightofalbion]

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from
- Dr Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

 

[Meanderer]

 

[Knightofalbion]

Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don't want it. What seems conceit, bad manners or cynicism is always a sign of things no ears have heard, no eyes have seen.
You do not know what wars are going on where the spirit meets the bone
- Miller Williams

Walking, I am listening to a deeper way. Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. Be still, they say. Watch and listen. You are the result of the love of thousands. ~Linda Hogan, Native American writer

I love this quote! And the more I think about it, the more I like it. You are the result of the love of thousands.

There is no religion without love and people may talk as much as they like about their religion, but if it does not teach them to be good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham
- Anna Sewell

 

[Knightofalbion]

We call them dumb animals, and so they are, for they cannot tell us how they feel, but they do not suffer less because they have no words
- Anna Sewell

 

[Knightofalbion]

You did right my boy, wheter the fellow gets a summons or not. Many folks would have ridden by and said 'twas not their business to interfere. Now I say that with cruelty and oppression it is everybody's business to interfere when they see it
- Anna Sewell
