Do silly things. Foolishness is a great deal more vital and healthy than our straining and striving after a meaningful life.

Today’s Quote on Love by Tolstoy
All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love.
No Longer Mourn for Me ~ by Shakespeare
No Longer Mourn for Me
No longer mourn for me when I am dead
Then you shall hear the surly sullen bell
Give warning to the world that I am fled
From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell:
Nay, if you read this line, remember not
The hand that writ it; for I love you so
That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot
If thinking on me then should make you woe.
O, if, I say, you look upon this verse
When I perhaps compounded am with clay,
Do not so much as my poor name rehearse.
But let your love even with my life decay,
Lest the wise world should look into your moan
And mock you with me after I am gone.
By: William Shakespeare
Today’s Quote by Florence Nightengale
Live life when you have it. Life is a splendid gift-there is nothing small about it.
Poem of Life – Author Unknown
POEM OF LIFE
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what’s to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay…
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey’s quicker,
For some the journey’s slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We’ll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord
Quote on the Wise Use of Time
You cannot add more minutes to the day, but you can utilize each one to the fullest.
Today’s Quote on the Meaning of Life
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
Pablo Picasso
Today’s Quote by Goethe ~ Inspiring
Like the star
That shines afar,
Without haste
And without rest,
Let each man wheel with steady sway
Round the task that rules the day,
And do his best.
—Goethe.
A Poem on Choices by Laozi
Or fame or life,
Which do you hold more dear?
Or life or wealth,
To which would you adhere?
Keep life and lose those other things;
Keep them and lose your life:—which brings
Sorrow and pain more near?
Thus we may see,
Who cleaves to fame
Rejects what is more great;
Who loves large stores
Gives up the richer state.
Who is content
Needs fear no shame.
Who knows to stop
Incurs no blame.
From danger free
Long live shall he.
Who thinks his great achievements poor
Shall find his vigour long endure.
Of greatest fulness, deemed a void,
Exhaustion ne’er shall stem the tide.
Do thou what’s straight still crooked deem;
Thy greatest art still stupid seem,
And eloquence a stammering scream.
