Freedom and Love
by Thomas Campbell
How delicious is the winning
Of a kiss at love’s beginning,
When two mutual hearts are sighing
For the knot there’s no untying!
Yet remember, ’midst our wooing,
Love has bliss, but Love has ruing;
Other smiles may make you fickle,
Tears for other charms may trickle.
Love he comes, and Love he tarries,
Just as fate or fancy carries;
Longest stays, when sorest chidden;
Laughs and flies, when press’d and bidden.
Bind the sea to slumber stilly,
Bind its odour to the lily,
Bind the aspen ne’er to quiver,
Then bind Love to last for ever.
Love’s a fire that need renewal
Of fresh beauty for its fuel:
Love’s wing moults when caged and captured,
Only free, he soars enraptured.
Can you keep the bee from ranging
Or the ringdove’s neck from changing?
No! nor fetter’d Love from dying
In the knot there’s no untying.
Big Ben, London, UK
I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do
or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not
defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.
Stephen
Grellet
An Avocado plant I grew from a stone.
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, gifted ability, or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we
will embrace from that day. We cannot change our past, we cannot change the fact
that people will act in certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only
thing that we can do is play on the one string that we have and this string is,
Attitude. I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me and ninety
percent how I react to it. And so it is with you....We are in charge of our
Attitudes.
Charles Swindoll
