“I leave to children exclusively, but only for the life of their childhood, all and every the dandelions of the fields and the daisies thereof, with the right to play among them freely, according to the custom of children, warning them at the same time against the thistles. And I devise to children the yellow shores of creeks and the golden sands beneath the water thereof, with the dragon flies that skim the surface of said waters, and and the odors of the willows that dip into said waters, and the white clouds that float on high above the giant trees.” ChildrenSaidPlayWaterWhiteTreeChildhoodFieldsCloudsSurfaceGoldenGiantsSandDragonsCustomsShoreWarningYellowFloatsDipDaisiesOdorCreeksDandelionsThistlesWhite Clouds Author:Williston Fish
“The time has come when we must take an unyielding stand. We must shore up our spiritual underpinnings, listen to the prophets of God, and follow their counsel.Said Paul to Timothy: “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord.” (2 Timothy 1:7-8.)It requires courage to make good choices, even when others around us choose differently. As we make righteous choices day by day in little things, the Lord will strengthen us and help us choose the right during more difficult times.” MindLittlesSaidHelpingSpiritualSpiritChoicesGivenDifficultSoundLordProphetAshamedLittle ThingsShoreRighteousTestimonyDifficult TimesOur LordUnyieldingGood ChoicesSound Mind Author:W.

“From high Meonia's rocky shores I came, Of poor decsent, Acoetes is my name, My sire was measly born: no oxen ploughed, His fruitful fields, nor in his pastures lowed, His whole estate within the waters lay' With lines and hooks he caught the finny prey; His art was all his livelehood, which he Thus with his dying lips bequeathed to me: In streams, my boy, and rivers take thy chance; There swims', said he, Thy whole inheritance.” ArtSaidWholeNamesWaterBornLinesChancePoorBoysSeaDyingFieldsRiversLaysLipsCaughtFishesBoatStreamsLakesFishingSwimShoreEstatesHookInheritancePreyMy BoysPasturesOxen Author:Ovid
