“If I had my child to raise all over again,I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less.I'd do less correcting, and more connecting.I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.I would care to know less, and know to care more.I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.I'd run through more fields, and gaze at more stars.I'd do more hugging, and less tugging.I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.I'd build self esteem first, and the house later.I'd teach less about the love of power, and more about the power of love.” IfsKnowsFirstsChildrenSelfPlayWould BeEyeCareRunningHouseStarsParentWatchesTeachSelf EsteemFieldsSeriousRaisesParentingFingersPaintEsteemFirmMy ChildrenHugConnectingRaising ChildrenPower Of LoveBeing A ParentCorrectingHaving ChildrenKitesChildren And ParentsParents LoveChildren PlayingGood ParentRaising KidsFunny ParentingParent ChildFunny ParentTuggingGreat ParentingInspirational ParentingKids PlayingRaise Self EsteemLove My ParentsLoving ChildrenInspirational ParentsEyes WatchingI Love My ParentsLove My KidsWise ParentsBuilding Self EsteemBeing A Good ParentLove My ChildrenThrough The Eyes Of A ChildLove My SonHaving A Son Author:Diana Loomans
“Let us consider what we call vicious luxury. No gratification, however sensual, can of itself be esteemed vicious. A gratification is only vicious when it engrosses all a man's expense, and leaves no ability for such acts of duty and generosity as are required by his situation and fortune. The same care and toil that raise a dish of peas at Christmas would give bread to a whole family during six months.” MenGivingWholeCareAbilitySituationDutyMonthsSixRaisesFortuneBreadLuxurySensualGenerosityExpensesDishesToilViciousSix MonthsGratificationWhole FamilyPeas Book:Selected essays Source: Selected essays
“KFC is not black owned, but it sure knows to market heavily to African Americans - obviously hoping we won-t care about what they do the underdog, or in this case, the underchicken - So, if KFC wants to take our money and use it to pay for sloppy practices that hurt animals?I say we send them a message that this is not going to happen. I-m calling on people to boycott KFC until they adopt animal welfare systems recommended by PETA and until they stop the worst abuses of the birds they raise for their restaurants.” PeopleIfsKnowsWantUseHappensCareBlackHurtAnimalPayPracticeCasesWorstCallingMessagesBirdAbuseRaisesAfrican AmericanWelfareRestaurantsUnderdogAnimal WelfareSloppyBoycottPetaKfc Author:Bill Vaughan
“Alas! What boots it with uncessant care To tend the homely slighted Shepherd's trade, And strictly meditate the thankless muse; Were it not better done as others use, To sport with Amaryllis in the shade, Or with the tangles of Neaera's hair? Fame is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise (That last infirmity of noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious days; But the fair guerdon when we hope to find, And think to burst out into sudden blaze, Comes the blind Fury with th'abhorred shears, And slits the thin-spun life.” ThinkingMindDoneUseCareLastsSpiritSportsClearHairFameFairsRaisesBlindTradeDelightNobleShadeBootsMuseAlasScornFuryShepherdsSpursInfirmitySpunSlitsHomelyThanklessSlightedShears Author:John Milton
