@MissAdventurous a beautiful story shared by a beautiful human being.. indeed ,, what the world needs ...
@MissAdventurous ... do you have a book reference for the last post? It seems like a wonderful read/resource.
“Be kind”
@ChocolateBQ out of all the pages and posts on this thread—all the erudite quotes, political spews, florid prose, new age nuances, your simple quote “Be kind” is really the only one that needs to be heeded.
Thank you. Everyone needs that reminder.
@ChocolateBQ copy @FunCartel
it is so often the fewest of words that can convey the most important aspects of life... is not "i love you" enough... yes, "be kind" ,,,we all should write that to everyone we know... pass it along ...
"I made no resolutions for the New Year. The habit of making plans, of criticizing, sanctioning and molding my life, is too much of a daily event for me."
Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Book: Letter to a Hostage
I received a collection of quotes as a gift almost twelve years ago.
The quote from this gathering that most resonates today is:
What soap does for the body, tears do for the soul. It's a Jewish proverb.
“In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.” Khalil Gibran - The Prophet, 1923.
Krazy Kat Klub, 1921.
Good ideas are not adopted automatically. They must be drawn into practice with courageous patience.

be careful not to crush ALL the men, after all, once you slay the president of the company, you will inevitably desire someone of less rank to fetch your coffee and to wear his shirt halfway unbuttoned on his muscular chest.... just sayin;..... 😎
Your greatest lessons in life will always be your failures, downfalls, and mistakes.
“You become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.“
-The Velveteen Rabbit
"Nice is different than good."

"The kindest people are not born that way, they are made.
They are the ones who have dug themselves out of the dark, who have fought to turn every loss into a lesson.
The kindest people don’t just exist they choose to soften where circumstance has tried to harden them, they choose to believe in goodness because they have seen firsthand why compassion is so necessary.
They have seen firsthand why tenderness is so important in this world."
Feeling this so much in my heart lately. ❤
