A Touch Of Wisdom

“It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.”

― Anne Frank, (1929 - 1945) (Brilliant Writer, Teenage Holocaust Victim) The Diary of a Young Girl

A Touch Of Wisdom

 “The Little Boy and the Old Man

Said the little boy, "Sometimes I drop my spoon."
Said the old man, "I do that too."
The little boy whispered, "I wet my pants."
I do that too," laughed the little old man.
Said the little boy, "I often cry."
The old man nodded, "So do I."
But worst of all," said the boy, "it seems
Grown-ups don't pay attention to me."
And he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand.
I know what you mean," said the little old man.”

― Shel Silverstein (1930 - 1999) (Writer, playwright, poet, cartoonist, songwriter) (His books have been translated into 30 languages and have sold 20 million copies)

It was easy to love God in all that was beautiful. The lessons of deeper knowledge though, instructed me to embrace God in all things.

A Touch Of Wisdom

“Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it.

Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.”

―  The Buddha
