Beauty And Madness

Over there, just beneath the moon,
There’s a man with a burden to keep,
Now sleep will fall, washouts, rags and paper bags
Homes and lives passing by.
Who will see the beauty in your life?
And who will be there to hear you when you call?
Who will see the madness in your life?
And who will be there to catch [...]

Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.
Follow the three Rs: *Respect for self *Respect for others and *Responsibility for all your actions.
Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
Learn the rules so you know how to break them [...]

In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the room. There were no distinguishing features save for the mysterious array of black filing cabinets. They were like the ones in libraries that list titles by author or subject in alphabetical order. But these files, which stretched from floor to ceiling and seemingly [...]

One Monday morning in late August, I was waiting in the drive-through line at a fast-food restaurant, craving a sausage biscuit. It was rush hour, and the streets were filled with cars, vans, and buses. Area schools were starting back after a long summer, too, and the drive-through line was huge.
As I sat there thinking [...]

Listen. You don’t have to be as good as them to prove that you deserve to be there. Whatever your skill level is right now, you’ve worked hard for that. So don’t be too hard on yourself. Don’t put yourself down. If you really want to improve, then maybe you can learn from others. But [...]

In Your Eyes

I think I finally know you
I can see beyond your smile
I think that I can show you
That what we have is still worthwhile
Don’t you know that love’s just like a thread
That keeps unraveling but then
It ties us back together in the end
In your eyes, I can see my dream’s reflections
In your eyes, found [...]

Meaning Of Love

Love is a slow kiss goodnight
…. It’s anticipation.
Love is an imperfection in yourself not bothering you
…. It’s acceptance.
Love is passing up an opportunity because the time isn’t right yet
…. It’s patience.
Love is saying the perfect phrase to make a solemn embrace dissolve into giggles
…. It’s humor.
Love is seeing what your love really looks like for [...]

Feeling as if her heart would break,
Stinging words, they had lashed out.
The tears she held, so deep within,
Revealed her anguish and doubt.
They cut as if a two-edged sword.
She fought the emotions within.
But, in the recesses of her mind,
Words echoed time and again.
In the stillness of the night,
She knelt to voice her plea.
Within her soul, she [...]

Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed that the boy ahead of him had tripped and dropped all the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape recorder. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered articles.
Since they were [...]

Tell Me

There are nights when I can’t help but cry,
And I wonder why you had to leave me
Why did it have to end so soon?
When you said that you would never leave me
Tell me, where did I go wrong?
What did I do to make you change your mind completely?
When I thought [...]

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy [...]

We Will Meet Again

We will meet again my friend,
A hundred years from today
Far away from where we lived
And where we used to play.
We will know each others’ eyes
And wonder where we met
Your laugh will sound familiar
Your heart, I won’t forget.
We will meet, I’m sure of this,
But let’s not wait til then…
Let’s take a walk beneath the stars
And share [...]

Two little teardrops were floating down the river of life. One drop said to the other, “I am the teardrop of a girl who loved a man and lost him.” Who are you? “Well, I am the teardrop of the girl who won him.”
Love is very strange. Love is unconditional commitment to an imperfect individual. [...]

Never Thought

Can I touch you?
I cant believe that you are real
How did I ever find you?
You are the dream that saved my life
You are the reason I survived
Baby…
I never thought that I could love
Someone as much as I love you
I know its crazy but its true
I never thought that I could need
Someone as much as [...]

Some time ago, a friend of mine punished his 3-year old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This [...]
