"Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

Never take someone for granted
Hold every person close to your heart
Because you might wake up one day
And realise that you've lost a diamond

While you were too busy collecting stones.

Dis een van my favorites!!!  :)

My favorite poet, Kahlil Gibran: "...he who has never looked at suffering cannot claim to see joy."

There are no batteries to replace, it's inflation-proof and
non-fattening with no monthly payments.
It's non-taxable, non-polluting, and is, of course, fully
refundable."

Mooi!  :)

Wim! I want an all natural, fully refundable hug, NOW!  :smitten:

"You will always find excuses why you can't do things today.
Excuses for why tomorrow will be better.

                           George Bernard Shaw

"What I do on my motorcycle for fun can never be at anyone else’s expense. Not by way of risk to others or by happen stance.
Implied in that message is a responsibility to be as safe as I can, to share the road with respect for others and to do my very best
to ride well within my abilities and keep my ego in check at all times."

Good one ... thanks.

"If experience hasn't changed your view of right and wrong, you need to experience more."

Reason and emotion in the expansion of the moral circle:

...by thinking about my place in the world, I am able to see that I am just one being among others, with interests and desires like others. I have a personal perspective on the world, from which my interests are at the front and centre of the stage, the interests of my family and friends are close behind, and the interests of strangers are pushed backed and sides. But reason enables me to see that others have the similarly subjective perspectives, and that from "the point of view of the universe", my perspective is no more privileged than theirs.  (Singer - 1995, p.229)

When you were born, it was raining, not because it should rain, but it was that the stars were crying because they lost the most beautiful star they ever had.
