caring

Live in such a way that when you die you leave God in your will for your children.

The eyes of love have 20/20 vision when focused on another, and become entirely blind when focused on ourselves.

There's nothing more aggravating in the world than the midnight sniffling of the person you've decided to hate.

Family and friends become oppressors the moment they teach you that loyalty is more important than what is done to people outside your social circle. What they are really saying is this: Save yourself because God is more interested in an intact family or social circle that looks righteous, rather than you being a person of integrity that has compassion for others. It is this absurdity that teaches the wrong version of God and creates the next generation of "me" centered individuals.

One HELLO? can change a life.One HELLO? can save a life.

Vulnerability gives us freedom, power and connects us to a network of injured souls. It is through the art of being real that we can heal ourself and others.

In the heart or every caregiver is a knowing that we are all connected. As I do for you, I do for me.

And now, for something completely the same:Wasted time and wasted breath,'s what I'll make, until my death.Helping people 'd be as good,but I wouldn't, if I could.For the few that help deserve,have no need, or not the nerve,help from strangers to accept,plus from mine a few have wept.Wept from joy, or from despair,or just from my vengeful stare.Ways I have, to look at stupid,make them see I am not Cupid.Make them see they are in error,for of truth I am a bearer.Most decide I'm just a bear,mauling at them, - like I care.

Im happy to sit and be an ear to listen when the world gets wild but Id much prefer to watch the ways your eyes in sparkle in the midst of convincing me why you love the things you do. It gives me hope that someone else out there feels everything with this much depth and has the willingness to create a beautiful life from it.

The simple act of caring is heroic.

Affirmations are our mental vitamins, providing the supplementary positive thoughts we need to balance the barrage of negative events and thoughts we experience daily.

We are not at the bargaining table in agreement to end abuse to our world. We are on the battlefield deciding everyday if we will let this world die or live, by how we contribute to its treatment.

Simple minded people do things like gossip, lie, spread rumors, and cause troubles. But, I know you're more intelligent.

The earth is hiring and the pay is your legacy.

The fact is, there is no foundation, no secure ground, upon which people may stand today if it isn__ the family. If you don__ have the support and love and caring and concern that you get from a family, you don__ have much at all. Love is so supremely important. As our great poet Auden said, __ove each other or perish_.

The more a species is rare the more we like and protect it... So what about humans?

Friends are like the stars that glow in the sky... you don't always see them, but you know they're always there overhead, and even when it's cloudy, snowy or stormy, even when the power goes out and you're trapped in darkness, they'll always find a way to shine through to you.

Is not the true respect and worship of God the exercising of our power in such a way that we are also respected?
