Speaking of Xavior…
I just found a quote I wrote down and meant to post here ummm…
Eight months ago?
When one walks alone, they become numb to it all. When one forgets to feel, only then does the world become clear. Only in that moment of clarity can one find a true destiny.
That is all.
For now!
Quotes
Amid the patrons last night, there was a waitress with a tattoo on the back of her arm:
“Above all else guard your heart for it affects all you know.”
A lot of people said ‘that’s cool’ but I wonder how many took the time to really think about it…

Quotes
“The needs of my Master are more important than my own, because I trust my Master to meet and care for my needs, which then leaves me free to focus on his needs.” Compliments of A View From the Top.
I guess that’s the crux right there.
Shameful that I find these things before I have to be at work!
Evan Almighty
You knew all along didn’t you? […] I fought you every step of the way.
Yes, but you did it.
Stephen King: Burning Bridges
“The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them – words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they’re brought out. But it’s more than that, isn’t it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revalations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you’ve said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That’s the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller, but for want of an understanding ear.” – Stephen King

Compliments of subliminella:
“I think the best thing I can do is to be a distraction. A husband lives and breathes his work all day long. If he comes home to more table thumping, how can the poor man ever relax?”
– Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

Quotes
Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you.
360 Moments ~ Which Wolf Wins
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, “My son, the battle is between two ‘wolves’ inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf wins?”
The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

Quotes
From an acquaintance of an acquaintance of an acquaintance…
“…I don’t like being alone. I actually LIKE depending on a man for manly things. Screw feminism. My bed sleeps better with another person in it, and my life is more balanced knowing I don’t have to live it alone.”
Anger
”Anger and resentment can stop you in your tracks. That’s what I know now. It needs nothing to burn but the air and the life that it swallows and smothers. It’s real, though – the fury, even when it isn’t. It can change you…turn you… mold you and shape you into something you’re not. The only upside to anger, then… is the person you become. Hopefully someone that wakes up one day and realizes they’re not afraid to take the journey, someone that knows…[t]hat anger, like growth, comes in spurts and fits, and in its wake, leaves a new chance at acceptance, and the promise of calm…”

”Which allows you to see more, the mirror or the blindfold?”
Quotes ~ Rinpoche
”Although you may understand the explanations, if you are still suffering because of problems, you clearly do not understand the true nature of your mind, your body, and your senses.” – Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Transforming Problems Into Happiness

Quotes ~ Phantom
”Sing once again with me
Our strange duet
My power over you
Grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me
To glance behind
The phantom of the opera is there
Inside your mind”
