“Walking uplifts the spirit. Breathe out the poisons of tension, stress, and worry; breathe in the power of God. Send forth little silent prayers of goodwill toward those you meet. Walk with a sense of being a part of a vast universe. Consider the thousands of miles of earth beneath your feet; think of the limitless expanse of space above your head. Walk in awe, wonder, and humility. Walk at all times of day. In the early morning when the world is just waking up. Late at night under the stars. Along a busy city street at noontime.” ThinkingWorldLittlesEarthSpiritNightSpiritualityUniverseStarsPrayerSpaceWalksCitiesWonderMorningWorryFeetStreetsHumilityWalkingLateStressWake UpSilentBusyBreatheMilesAll TimeUpliftingTensionPoisonAweWakingLimitlessGoodwillPower Of GodEarly MorningExpanseTime Of DayCity StreetsSilent PrayerStress And Worry Author:Bill Vaughan
“The decay of the late, great country of South Africa is beginning to become apparent. The name of the Transvaal has been officially changed to 'Gauteng.' (One of our friends has suggested that in view of this its inhabitants in the future should be referred to as Oranggautengs.) ... And now there is a move afoot to wreck the Kruger National Park, one of the wonders of the world, on the notion that a good bit of its land was 'taken from the blacks.' This idea is somewhat akin to giving Yellowstone Park back to the Blackfeet.” WorldGivingShouldHas BeensIdeasCountryMovingNamesBitsViewsWonderTakenLandChangedLateSouthNotionParksDecaySouth AfricaWrecksGreat CountryNational ParksWonder Of The WorldYellowstone Author:Jeff Cooper
“You wonder why your government's completely broken? We lurch from deadline to deadline, and it's on purpose really. We do deadline to deadline because ... 'we've got to go.

“Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.” IfsThinkingNeedsFeelsTryingBookMomentsRunningLife IsNightForceWonderSupportSceneLateIllusionLogicMiracleFilledSurpriseOppositionUrgesLogicalIrrationalDisagreementTherapistsBedtimeClose Friends Book:Raising a Daughter: Parents and the Awakening of a Healthy Woman Source: Raising a Daughter: Parents and the Awakening of a Healthy Woman

“Writers tend to work early in the morning, or late at night, when brains are naturally able to focus deeply on one thought. In the middle of the day, distractions are unavoidable.

“I've heard [Bernie] Sanders comments, and it's really caused me to wonder who's left in the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. Under his definition, [Barack] Obama is not progressive because he took donations from Wall Street; [Joe] Biden is not progressive because she supported Keystone; [Jeanne] Shaheen is not progressive because she supports the trade pact. Even the late, great Paul Wellstone would not fit this definition because he voted for DOMA.” LeftPartyWonderSupportHeardStreetsWallFitLateTradeWingsDemocraticDefinitionsBarackProgressiveCommentDemocratic PartyDonationPactBidenKeystones Author:Hillary Clinton
