A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul. The Bible

Kindness is the heart of living.  It is what makes life bearable, meaningful and delicious. Glenda Green

Compassion can be defined as our capacity to care for other living beings.  Yet it goes a little deeper than that.  Compassion requires action - giving of our time, money, or experience whenever there's a need.  Since it is available in such abundance, we sometimes take this feeling for granted.  But, oh, it's power! Compassion is the ultimate salve we can place upon the universal feelings of despair, pain, or regret.  Which means that even sometimes the simplest act of kindness can define a moment.  Or change a life! Nieman Marcus catalog

I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand. Chinese proverb

Spread love everywhere you go: First of all in your own house... let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.  Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting. Mother Theresa

There is no greater joy than giving and no greater gift that love. Unknown

Others treat us the way we invite them to treat us. Unknown

Life is nothing without desire. Esther and Jerry Hicks

If you're never scared or embarrassed, or hurt, it means you never take any chances. Julia Sorel

Anxiety is the space between "now" and "then." Fritz Perls

Faith is like the air in a ballon.  If you've got it, you're filled.  If you don't, you're empty. Peggy Cahn

Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future. Jean Delabruyere
