"It is not by self-realization that man realizes God.
It is by God-realization that man realizes self."
...Author Unknown
I sent my soul through the Invisible
Some byletter of that afterlife to spell;
And by and by my soul returned to me,
And answered "I myself am Heaven and Hell."

"The weather may storm
And the bow may break,
On the quest for treasure
We all must make.
But when the chest is found
And the gold revealed,
The secret of life
Remains concealed.
Because the truth that we seek
Lies not in the sand,
But in the hearts and souls
Of every woman and man."
...Michael Dooley
"Sincerity is like a bud in the heart of man,
that blossoms with the maturity of the soul."
"Endurance makes things prescious and men great."
"Success is in store for the faithful,
for faith ensures success."
"A friend is the first person who comes in when the whole world has gone out."
...Mary Dawson Hughes
"There is always plenty on man's pathway;
but it can only be brought into manifestation through desire, faith or the spoken word."
...Florence Scovil Shinn
"Ask, and it shall be given you,
Seek, and ye shall find
Knock, and it shall be opened to you."
...Matthew 7:7
"Bless your enemy, and you rob him of his ammunition.
His arrows will be transmuted into blessings."
"Divine ideas never conflict."
"Real love is selfless and free from fear.
It pours itself out upon the object of its affection, without demanding any return.
Its joy is in the joy of giving.
Love is God in manifestation,
And the strongest magnetic force in the universe."
Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes over night. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength stare it down. �Eleanor Roosevelt, You Learn by Living, 1960
