July 27th, 2007: Thoughts for the day
WE MUST BE LIKE POSTAGE STAMPS MY FRIENDS:
Consider the postage stamp, my son. It secures success through its ability to stick to one thing till it gets there.
Josh Billings (LOL!!!!!!!!!, Fantastic!)
========================================================
"The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice."
There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors.
Jim Morrison
And we enter another day with our BAD SELVES!
FORUM BROTHERS AND SISTERS UNITE!
Chillen's Quote of the day:
To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.
Charles Dickens.
(Open our hearts to each other and help one another, working with our disagreements and not against them and fueling them)
==========================================================
When it rains, look up in the sky, and you will see your own reflection rainbow!
Reach up and pull it down, become a counsel to this internal crown, and it will shine bright all around.
Internal glow moves to and fro and from head to toe within the internal muppet show, when it has a desire to know it brings no mental plateau! (chillen) ROCK ON!!!!!!!
=================================================================================
SEE THE REAL YOU AND SHINE BRIGHT!!!!!!!!
I know you have it, I believe in each and everyone one of you!
========================================================
We as forum members, have at our finger tips to turn a life around when they come here seeking advice or other fitness eduction. We cannot take this responsibility lightly, what we give just could change someone:
Too often we under estimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
Leo Buscaglia.
(This is the purpose: Seek to make what seems bleak into a power technique) (Chillen)
========================================================
To my friend FF (Todd) (whom took over for me, while I was busy, thank you)
Are we friends, or are we not?
You told me once, but I forgot
Tell me now, and tell me true
So I can say, I'm here for you.
Of all the friends I've ever met
You're the one I won't forget
And if I die before you do
I'll go to heaven, and wait for you
I'll give the angels, back their wings
And risk the loss, of everything.
Just to prove my friendship is true
To have a friend, a friend like you
Loren Heath
(Friends take care of each other, and you have earned a good friend)
Friends are like windows through which you see out into the world and back into yourself... If you don't have friends you see much less than you otherwise might.
Merle Shain.
========================================================
A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself.
Unknown.
(We must all be friends and CAUSE belief in ourselves. Isnt this one of the purposes of this forum?) We are special people whom can make others feel special.
To keep a lamp burning we have to keep putting oil in it.
Mother Teresa.
A good friend sees your first tear, catches the second and stops the third
and, if the fourth is missed and dropped in the ocean, I will stop being your friend when they find it.
(chillen)
Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.
George Eliot.
(seek the real and true meaning in what friends say)
========================================================
BE LIKE THE TURTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!
Behold the turtle. He only makes progress when he sticks his neck out.
James Bryant Conant
========================================================
Come on, what kind of wheels are you driving here?
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy.
Eagles, from the song, Take it Easy
(get educated, practice what you learn, adapt and overcome)
========================================================
Promise yourself, Pride yourself, Prove yourself
Promise Yourself:
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.
Christian D. Larson

To PB:
Grows with his growth, and strengthens with his strength.
A lofty oak from a small acorn grows.
We grow because we struggle, we learn and overcome.
The art of progress is to preserve order amid change, and to preserve change amid order. Life refuses to be embalmed alive.
==========================================================
Alan Cohen:
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.
==========================================================
Anais Nin:
Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.
==========================================================
What IS relevent:
General Eric Shinseki:
If you don't like change, you're going to like irrelevance even less. [Chief of Staff, U. S. Army]
=========================================================
Okay, what does this mean? ?
Whosoever wishes to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details.
Knowledge is not intelligence.
In searching for the truth be ready for the unexpected.
Change alone is unchanging.
The same road goes both up and down.
The beginning of a circle is also its end.
Not I, but the world says it: all is one.
And yet everything comes in season.
=========================================================
Pablo Picasso:
I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.
(It may seem impossible at first, BUT YOU CAN LEARN TO DO IT!)

Pearl S. Buck:
Growth itself contains the germ of happiness
=========================================================
Stephen Sigmund:
Learn wisdom from the ways of a seedling. A seedling which is never hardened off through stressful situations will never become a strong productive plant.

Unknown:
Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
(LOL)

I may not know much, but I know the difference between chicken sh@t and chicken salad.
Lyndon B Johnson
(LOL)
=========================================================
I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three.
Elayne Boosler
confused:, uh, whatever.)
=========================================================
He had a mind so fine that no idea could violate it.
T. S. Eliot (on Henry James)
(DO NOT let this happen to you! LOL)
=========================================================
I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer.
Douglas Adams

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow; Don't walk behind me, I may not lead; Walk beside me, and just be my friend.
-- Albert Camus
==========================================================
I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it.
-- Voltaire

Never miss a good chance to shut up.
-- Will Rogers (LOL!)
(Uh, Chillen, hey! Yes, you, chillen, you could have used this the other day, old wind bag and motor mouth! shut the hell up!)

There once was a ShaftedTwice who used an electronic device to give words of advice.
ShaftedTwice ate his Chicken and Rice while listening to excercise advice.However, ShaftedTwice was eliminated by a detonating device.

Glad to see you showed up to say hello!

Best Wishes as always,
