A JOKE...JUST FOR CHANGE.

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray: "Take only ONE. God is watching." Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples.

My Heart..

2006-02-02T23:01:00.000-08:00

My heart is receptacle of all forms:
My heart is a meadow for the wild deer.
A convent for the Christian monk;
A temple for idols,
And a Kaaba for the moslem pilgrim.
My heart is the Tables of Torah,
And the book of Koran.
My religion is love, whenever its steed may take me.
And this is my creed and this is my faith.

"Ebn'e Arabi"

IT'S ONE..

2006-01-31T08:49:00.000-08:00

Call it God, call it Spirit
Call it Jesus, call it Lord
Call it Buddha, Ba'Ha'Ulla,
Hasem or Heaven's Door
It's Mohammad, it's your mind
It's your soul or it's your sign
It's the Universe, it's music,
Mother Earth or Father Time,
But whatever name you give it,
It's all One Power, can't you see?
Whatever name you give it
It's the very air we breathe
It's the power of the love in you and me.
It's the moment of creation,
It's an everlasting peace
It's the joy of inspiration
It's the sunshine on your face
It's the birthright of all nations
It's the boundlessness of space
It's the beauty of a baby
The serenity of sleep
It's the anger we abandon
For it's love that's most deep
It's One Power
It's the power of the love that lives forever in you and me
It's the power of the love in you and me.

Momentum

2006-01-15T22:53:00.000-08:00

Remember the power of momentum. Having things work in your favor and continuing is positive momentum. Having things go against you and not working is also momentum....just the wrong momentum.

YOU

ANGELS EXIST but sometimes, since they don't have wings, wecall them FRIENDS.

Dance

2006-01-11T19:35:00.000-08:00

"If it is the last dance...dance backwards,

If you are afraid of the dark..remember the night rainbow,

If there is no happy ending...make one out of cookie dough."

Khalil Gibran

2006-01-11T12:00:00.000-08:00

And a Woman who held a babe against her bosom said, Speak to us of Children.
And he said:
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you.
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

I wish...

2006-01-11T11:59:00.000-08:00

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.

I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.

I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.

I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.

I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.

I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.

I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.

I See Children As Kites

2006-01-11T08:23:00.000-08:00

You spend a lifetime trying to get them off the ground.
You run with them until you are both breathless.
They crash….they hit the roof top,
You patch and comfort, adjust and they will fly.

Finally they are airborne
They will need more string, you keep letting it out.
But with each twist of the ball of twine,
There is a sadness that goes with the joy.

The kite becomes more distant
You know it won’t be long before that beautiful creature
Will snap the lifeline that bonds you together,
And will soar as it was meant to soar.

Free and alone
Only then will you know you have done your job.

يک زنگ تا زماني که تو آن را به حرکت در نياورده ای يک زنگ نيست

يک آواز تا زماني که تو آن را نخوانده ای يک آواز نيست

عشق ِ نهفته شده در قلبت برای اين نيست که آنجا بماند

و عشق تا زماني که آن را ارائه ندهي عشق نيست

هديه ابدی

ما هميشه مي توانيم دو هديه ی ابدی به فرزندان خود بدهيم: ريشه ها و بال های آهني

God

2006-01-11T04:46:00.000-08:00

Happy moments, praise God.

Difficult moments, seek God.

Quiet moments, worship God.

pinful moments, trust God.

Every moment, thank God.

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Mother Teresa

2006-01-10T17:48:00.000-08:00

Here are some great saying of MOTHER TERESA that i wanted to share with you:

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered, FORGIVE THEM ANYWAY.

If you are kind people may accuse you of selfish, BE KIND ANYWAY.

If you are suuccessful you will win some false friends and some true enemies, SUCCEED ANYWAY.

If you are honest and frank people may cheat you, BE HONEST AND FRANK ANYWAY.

What you spend building someone may destroy overnight, BUILD ANYWAY.

If you find serenity and happiness they maybe jealous, BE HAPPY ANYWAY.

The good you do today people will often forget tomorrow, DO GOOD ANYWAY.

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough, GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU HAVE GOT ANYWAY.

Let go and let God...

Normal Day

2006-01-09T23:46:00.000-08:00

NORMAL Day, let me be aware of the treasure you are.... Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. One day I shall dig my nail into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taught, or raise my hands to the sky and want , more than all the world, your return.
