“LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder) I wrote to myself recently. Live in your joy today. Be authentic. Love yourself. First. Love others from your own abundance. Life Changes. Circumstances change. Sometimes you try to fit your old way of being into new circumstances rather than becoming new yourself. Embrace transformation as an opportunity. And keep on writing love letters to yourself.” WayWritingTryingFirstsSometimesTodayJoyOpportunityTakenLove YouBecomingFitCircumstancesLettersTransformationEmbraceGentleLife ChangingAbundanceLove YourselfFirst LoveRemindersBeing In LoveLove LetterOld WaysLove Of My LifeLove Yourself FirstChange Is GoodWriting LoveBecoming New Author:Mary Anne Radmacher

“And for Incoherent Speech, it was amongst the Gentiles taken for one sort of Prophecy, because the Prophets of their Oracles, intoxicated with a spirit, or vapor from the cave of the Pythian Oracle at Delphi, were for a time really mad, and spake like mad-men; of whoose loose words a sense might be made to fit any event, in such sort, as all bodies are said to be made of Materia prima .” MenMadeSaidBodyMightSpiritTakenEventsFitSpeechMadProphetProphecyCavesMad MenOraclesIntoxicatedVaporGentilesDelphi Book:Leviathan Source: Leviathan
“I want upon death to be buried, just like in the old days, where I decompose by the action of microorganisms, and I am dined upon by any form of creeping animal or root system that sees fit to do so.... I will have recycled back to the universe at least some of the energy that I have taken from it. And in so doing, at the conclusion of my scientific adventures, I will have come closer to the heavens than to Earth.” WantActionEarthFormUniverseEnergyHeavenAnimalTakenAdventureFitRootsConclusionBuriedExtinctionWant UOld DaysRecycledMicroorganisms Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson
“I often get questioned about how we came up with the name Weebly.

“Do too many executives still indulge in the short-sighted habit of issuing orders without taking the slightest pains to explain to those responsible for carrying them out the whyfor and wherefor of the orders? Where employees come in daily and hourly contact with the public, surely it is important that care be taken to fit them to reply intelligently to courteous questions. ""Because them are orders"" isn't a satisfying reply-even less satisfactory to the management than to the public.” StillsImportantCarePainOrderTakenHabitFitResponsibleManagementContactEmployeeExecutivesSatisfyingIndulgeIndulge InCourteousShort Sighted Author:B.

“I would say except when I have been attacked the black community has seldom seen fit to even mention the gay aspect. And since when I have been attacked I have usually been defended by the black community, I would say that the black newspapers have played it very straight. If I was attacked they simply published that I was attacked, if I was defended they simply said I had been defended. But I don't think they have taken any effort at maligning me or maligning gays or making any effort to give to people anything that wasn't news.” PeopleIfsThinkingGivingHas BeensSaidBlackCommunityEffortTakenFitGayNewsAspectNewspapersBlack CommunitySimply Said Author:Bayard Rustin
“London is the most multicultural, mixed race place on Earth. And I love that. I grew up in a neighborhood in London where English wasn't necessarily the first language - maybe because of that, I love to travel. Every penny I've ever saved has been spent on airline tickets to different corners of the world. I think that's partly from growing up in London. I've taken that bit with me - this ability to fit in with any culture and be fascinated and respectful with any culture all started from growing up in London.” ThinkingWorldDifferentEarthCultureLanguageAbilityGrowing UpTakenFitNeighborhoodRespectfulAirlineMulticultural Author:JJ Feild
