Walking with a Friend.
Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light ~ Helen Keller
Let it Go
The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart, the less capable you are of loving in the present.

Do you think your hard done by ?
We have thousands of opportunities every day to be grateful:
for our health
for having good weather
to be able to sit in such a beautiful room on such comfortable furniture
to have slept well last night
to be able to get up
to have enough to eat.
There's opportunity upon opportunity to be grateful; that's what life is.
--Brother David Steindl-Rast--

The benefits of working as a team
A Holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, 'Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.'
The Lord led the holy man to two doors.
He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in.
In the middle of the room was a large round table..
In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.
The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly.
They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful.
But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.
The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.
The Lord said, 'You have seen Hell. They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one.
There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water.
The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking.
The holy man said, 'I don't understand.
'It is simple,' said the Lord. 'It requires but one skill.
You see, they have learned to feed each other.
The greedy think only of themselves.'
When Jesus died on the cross, he was thinking of you.

From the mouth Of Mother Teresa
We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop. --Mother Teresa
