“Many do with opportunities as children do at the seashore;

they fill their little hands with sand, and then let the grains fall through,

one by one, till all are gone.”
~Thomas Jones~

“For there is no friend like a sister, in calm or stormy weather,

to cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray,

to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.”
~Christina G. Rossetti~

Keep on beginning and failing.


Each time you fail, start all over again, and you will grow stronger


until you have accomplished a purpose -


not the one you began with perhaps,


but one you'll be glad to remember.


~Anne Sullivan~

Tenderness contains an element of sadness. It is not the sadness of feeling sorry for yourself or feeling deprived, but it is a natural situation of fullness. You feel so full and rich, as if you were about to shed tears. Your eyes are full of tears, and the moment you blink, the tears will spill out of your eyes and roll down your cheeks. In order to be a good warrior, one has to feel this sad and tender heart. Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
