Has Been the Poem

A   L   O   H   A  !

Life is given to us

we earn it by giving it.

        Rabindranath Tagore

What is life? I try to see

What is life? It's unity

What is life?

Life is a dream

What is life?

Life is a treat.

Derrick Simpson

Life is like a roller coaster

you will have your ups 

and your downs

you just need to 

get over it.     

Angelina Sabia

The rough must always 

accompany the smooth. 

Without one or the other 

one learns nothing 

about oneself.

My life has been the poem

I would have writ

But I could not both live

and utter it.

High Rise

A   L   O   H   A  ! 

I place a high moral value 

on the way people behave. 

I find it repellent to have a lot, 

and to behave with anything 

other than courtesy in the 

old sense of the word - 

politeness of the heart, 

a gentleness of the spirit. 

            Fran Lebowitz

The dogmas of the quiet past 

are inadequate to

the stormy present. 

The occasion is piled 

high with difficulty, and we 

must rise with the occasion.

   Abraham Lincoln

There is no power on earth 

that can neutralize the influence

of a high, simple and useful life. 

Booker T. Washington

There's no rehab

for stupidity.     

Chris Rock

My drug of choice is love. . .

 no other drug gets both 

the dealer and user high 

from every transaction.

Nothing Wasted

A   L   O   H   A  !

They're only truly great 

who are truly good.

      George Chapman 

Nothing we learn 

in this world 

is ever wasted.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Once a word has been 

allowed to escape,

it cannot be recalled.

            Horace 

Believe in yourself and 

there will come a day 

when others will have no 

choice but to 

believe with you.

Cynthia Kersey

I am still learning.

                                 age 87 in 1562

What the caterpillar calls 

the end of the world, 

the master calls 

a butterfly.     

Richard Bach

Perpetual optimism is 

a force multiplier.     

Colin Powell

I've actually I've been 

working on this

optimism thing

for some time,

 and even making a 

bit of progress. . .

Reflected Glint On Hillside Shines A Beacon

I would say that giving oneself

PERMISSION for Optimism

is crucial and tricky at first.

Quick rejection of negative

projections 

[ " fear " ]

is key. 

Notice & Replace!

Replace rumination on the future

with something that 

makes your heart glow

right here - right now:

"Come To Bed"

A problem is a chance for 

you to do your best.     

            Duke Ellington

To be the best,

you must be able

to handle the worst.

Life is like riding a bicycle

To keep your balance

you must keep moving.
