Thought for the Day

Thought for the Day

“Every year at just this time,
In cold and dark December,
Families around the world
All gather to remember,
With presents and with parties,
With feasting and with fun,
Customs and traditions
for people old and young.”


“To succeed in business, to reach the top,
an individual must know all it is possible
to know about that business”


“Having once decided to achieve a certain task,
achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste.
The gain in self-confidence of having accomplished
a tiresome labor is immense.”


“Oh heart, if one should say to you
that the soul perishes like the body,
answer that the flower withers,
but the seed remains.”

“When love is real you don’t get over it at all,
it stays with you forever, expanding your heart
and enabling you to love others more deeply.
Love is a gift child, a grace.”

“If my decomposing carcass
helps nourish the roots of a juniper tree
or the wings of a vulture
that is immortality enough for me.
And as much as anyone deserves.”
