"The most daring thing 

is to create stable communities 

in which the terrible disease 

of loneliness can be cured."

Pleas for Tolerance

are always aimed

at others.

Yet we are proud

of our own unbending

Intolerance

And call it

Standing For Something.

After all:

We are right.

They Are deplorable.

In your eyes.

In their eyes.

They have a point of view.

But we know ours is Right.

Well how you behave

is the meatiest part

of being Right.

Do not sneer,

Do not punch,

Do not  kill.

Judge Not lest

the one judged guilty

is yourself.

What happened to Reverence?

When did we begin to look

to the angriest,

instead of the

Wisest?

The mountains take

a broader view,

as we live less

than one of their minutes.

What will matter tomorrow,

for society, for me,

for you, for your health,is

the feelings we marinate in

and how we behave.

Tolerance.

Thank YOU

Friend!

Fondly, cloudia

 "Two roads diverged 

in a wood, and I ... 

I took the one 

less traveled by, 

and that has made 

all the difference."

than what happened to us.”

"Keep away from people 

who belittle your ambitions. 

Small people always do that, 

but the really great make you feel 

that you, too, can become great."

Accustom The Eye To Calmness

A  L  O  H  A !

"Everything has beauty, 

but not everyone sees it.” 

             Confucius

“What we do see depends 

mainly on what we look for. . .

In the same field the farmer will 

notice the crop, the geologists the 

fossils, botanists the flowers, 

artists the colouring, sportsmen 

the cover for the game. Though we 

may all look at the same things, 

it does not all follow that 

we should see them.” 

            John Lubbock

“To learn to see- to accustom 

the eye to calmness, to patience, 

and to allow things to come up to it; 

to defer judgment, and to 

acquire the habit of approaching 

and grasping an individual case 

from all sides. This is the first 

preparatory schooling. . . ” 

                      Friedrich Nietzsche
