citizens world way
I wanted to be a citizen of the world but not in a superficial way.
strong heart adversity
Almost anything can be dealt with if people are of good will and light hearts and strong values.
hands important never-forget
Never forget that music is too important to be left entirely in the hands of professionals.
want ifs
If you can't find the exact quote you want, make it up.
children spirit infinite
The kindergarten children are confident in spirit, infinite in resources, and eager to learn. Everything is still possible.
god ocean thinking
If someone were to ask me whether I believed in God, or saw God, or had a particular relationship with God, I would reply that I don't separate God from my world in my thinking. I feel that God is everywhere. That's why I never feel separated from God or feel I must seek God, any more than a fish in the ocean feels it must seek water. In a sense, God is the "ocean" in which we live.
feel-good feelings awful
The best feelings in your life come when you start feeling good after you've been feeling just awful
advice share found
Share everything. Don't take things that aren't yours. Put things back where you found them.
way craziness closets
Weddings seem to be magnets for mishap and for whatever craziness lurks in family closets. In more ways than one, weddings bring out the ding-dong on everybody involved.
mother children father
I love this child. Red-haired - patient and gentle like her mother - fey and funny like her father. When she giggles I can hear him when he and I were young. I am part of this child. It may be only because we share genes and that therefore smell familiar to each other.... It may be that a part of me lives in her in some important way.... But for now, it's jelly beans and 'Old MacDonald' that unite us.
success grateful add
It's not that I'm not grateful for all this attention. It's just that fame and fortune ought to add up to more than fame and fortune.
fun justice mercy
If we could just figure out how to have more fun at it, maybe more of us would join the ranks of those who seek after justice and mercy.
real imagination imagine
Everything we can imagine becomes real.
roots growth down-and
Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
