Silence and modesty are very valuable equalities in conversation.
---Michel D. Montaigne
To Ponder Over
DAILY DOZEN
Love. This incorporates the love between two people and the psychological and spiritual love of mankind, which is the foundation upon which we build humanity.
Security. There is a need for financial security, but there is also a great need for emotional and spiritual security.
Self-expression. We need to do something creative in this world instead of being idle by-standers.
Recognition. We must feel accepted by others, first we must find acceptance within ourselves and recognize our own worth.
New creative experiences. We must continually remain alert for new opportunities to express ourselves creatively.
Self-respect. We should value self-respect and respect of others and for others.
Getting more living out of life. Instead of being passive vegetables, we must create richer, more fruitful life.
Sharing happiness with others. People should value their capacity to give.
Involvement. Seek to help others who need your courage, your understanding, your goodwill.
The art of relaxation. We need to get rid of our tensions and recharge our creativity for peace.
Reaching goals. It is through reaching goals that we reach personal success and maturity.
Rising above a mistake. We must learn to see the errors in daily life and we must learn to forgive ourselves.
