We are only fully alive when we're helping others
As long as you tithe you cannot be greedy or needy.
Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
You get whatever you expect to get. The only question is. What do you want?
By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands - your own.
When you know clearly what you want, you'll wake up every morning excited about life.
Graveyards are filled with books that were never written, songs that were never sung, words that were never spoken, things that were never done.
We are surrounded by worn-out, banal, useless and exhausted images, limping and dragging themselves behind the rest of our cultural evolution.
Unruly beings are as unlimited as space They cannot possibly all be overcome, But if I overcome thoughts of anger alone This will be equivalent to vanquishing all foes. Where would I possibly find enough leather With which to cover the surface of the earth? But (wearing) leather just on the soles of my shoes Is equivalent to covering the earth with it. Likewise it is not possible for me To restrain the external course of things; But should I restrain this mind of mine What would be the need to restrain all else?
That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do has increased.
The Most Blessed Sacrament is Christ made visible. The poor sick person is Christ again made visible.
