Not In Gold

A   L   O   H   A !
The only lasting beauty is

the beauty of the heart.

          Rumi










The splendor of the rose 

and the whiteness of the lily

do not rob the little violet 

of it’s scent nor the daisy 

of its simple charm.

If every tiny flower 

wanted to be a rose, 

spring would lose 

its loveliness.

    St. Therese of Lisieux










Good ideas are not 

adopted automatically. 

They must be driven 

into practice with 

courageous patience.

      Hyman Rickover













 Happiness resides 

not in possessions 

and not in gold; the 

feeling of happiness 

dwells in the soul.  

Democritus 











A word or a smile is often 

enough to put fresh life 

in a despondent soul.

   St. Thérèse de Lisieux

Rumi is one of my heroes, but I disagree with him (a little) today.
Pixie for example is beautiful. Was beautiful. Will be beautiful. As are acts of kindness.

Happiness is a decent computer and a good internet connection.

The only lasting beauty is
the beauty of the heart.
