POEMS

 

He who binds to himself a joy

Does the winged life destroy;

But he who kisses the joy as it flies

Lives in eternity's sunrise.

 ~ William Blake

 

You throw the sand against the wind

And the wind blows it back again.

 ~ William Blake

 

This life's dim windows of the soul,

Distorts the heavens from pole to pole

And leads you to believe a lie

When you see with, not through, the eye

 ~ William Blake

By Robert Frost: The Minor Bird
 
I have wished a bird would fly away,
And not sing by my house all day;
 
Have clapped my hands at him from the door
When it seemed as if I could bear no more.
 
The fault must have been partly in me,
The brid was not to blame for his key.
 
And of course there must be something wrong
In wanting to silence any song.

 

 

“A rising tide lifts all boats.”

  ~ John Kennedy

The Storm

 

It seemed an indignation,

And a miracle at once,

The way the rain came pouring down,

The way the hail could bounce.

 

With amazing consternation,

The lightening filled the sky,

The thunder rolled from hill to hill,

The creatures wondered why.

 

With mighty concentration,

The storm’s eye looked and saw,

All the victims running wildly,

All the hoofs and paws.

 

With festive adulation,

The winds blew out the force,

The storm moved off to the west,

It found another course.

 

Joy Fox 1991

 

QUOTES
 
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ~Carl Jung
 
"My mother drew a distinction between achievement and
success. She said that 'achievement is the knowledge
that you have studied and worked hard and done the
best that is in you. Success is being praised by others,
and that is nice too, but not as important or as satisfying.
Always aim for achievement and forget about success." 
~ Helen Hayes

It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.
~Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, (Sherlock Holmes) A Case of Identity, 1982
 

E-mail rushes to and fro
Since paper letters seem too slow,
But we prefer the status quo;
This card was sent by escargot.
~Annonymous

What you are living is always an exact replication of your vibrational patterns of thought. Nothing could be more fair than life as you are living it, for as you are thinking, you are vibrating, and as you are vibrating, you are attracting—and so you are always getting back the essence of what you are giving.
~Abraham (A.K.A. Esther Hicks)
 
 
Remember this when trying to handle things in life:  big enough to matter, and small enough to manage.
 
"The past is a result of the present, not the other way around. Do not base what you prefer on what has been, for what has been doesn't exsist if you truly are a different person than you used to be."  Bashar

 
 
 
"The way people treat you is their karma, but the way
you react, is your karma"  ~ Dwayne Dyer

"The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that men may become robots" ~ Erich Fromm
 

"Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success."    Henry Ford
