A Touch Of Wisdom

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.

Elisabeth Kubler - Ross (1926 - 2004) (Psychiatrist, Pioneer in Near - Death Studies, Best-Selling Author)

A Touch Of Wisdom

“Reality is incredibly larger, infinitely more exciting, than the flesh and blood vehicle we travel in here. If you read science fiction, the more you read it the more you realize that you and the universe are part of the same thing. Science knows still practically nothing about the real nature of matter, energy, dimension, or time; and even less about those remarkable things called life and thought."

Gene Roddenberry (1921 - 1991) (Star Trek Creator) 

A Touch Of Wisdom

Life is short. No matter how long we live, it’s fragile. Tomorrow is never guaranteed. So we must not postpone our living. We must not delay taking the leap. We must not wait to chase the things that make us feel most alive.

George Raveling (Born 1937) (Hall of Fame Basketball Coach)

 There is a loftier ambition than merely to stand high in the world. It is to stoop down and lift mankind a little higher.

A Touch of Wisdom

 Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?
