Quote by Franz Mehring

“Before the crisis, my life moved along like a well-planned play. I showed up and acted my part while the script directed the flow. The devastation demanded I grieve while the play of my life continued around me. I wished I could stop the spinning stage long enough to catch my breath.”

“Often at shelters, we hear, 'I told my child she could get a pet, but she will have to take care of him.' That is an unrealistic expectation and often results in the pet being returned days, weeks, or months later. It is hard for pets to go in and out of a home. They bond with their humans and when they find themselves at a shelter, they become stressed at being taken away from home and the people they love. When an 'easy-way-out' decision is made to give up a pet, we are teaching our children that animals can be given away, turned away, and gotten rid of at the drop of a hat. If you are considering getting a cat or kitten, go into it fully aware that the adults in the home will have to help with the care of the pet.”

“Living in a spiritual manner, exhibiting a joyous and mindful embrace of the manifold wonders of an earthy existence, enhances life. A person develops spirituality by spending solitary time thinking about the larger issues in life. Scripting a personal philosophy for conducting a person’s life is a spiritual testament. A spiritual person seeks a system of general truths that encoded statement transforms their character.”

“श्वासांच्या प्रवासात थकलेली शरीरे,घड्याळाच्या काट्यासवे अंतर देणारे चेहरे. शेवटी राहतो भूतकाळ आठवणींचा,खडखडाट होणार असतो चाळळ्या जाणाऱ्या पानांचा. खूप सारे शब्द उरतात मांडायला पण नसतो कुणीच श्रोता ते ऐकायला. जीवन याहून वेगळे ते काय, जे आता आहे ते नंतर संपून जाणार आहे,अन जे आता संपणार आहे ते परत उत्त्पन्न होणार आहे.”
