Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. -Max Ehrmann, Desiderata

make a rule

October 1, 2008

I remember seeing a New Year episode of Ally McBeal one time where John Cage says:

If you think back and replay your year, if it doesn’t bring you tears, either of joy or sadness, consider it a year wasted.

Our lives are spinning so fast that we’re kinda forgetting the little things. We’re all on a roller coaster ride. One minute we’re up, and the next thing you know, you hit rock bottom. You barely had time for a breather and yet here comes another term life insurance quotes to take care of. I think we should slow down from time to time, you know. Take that longer and much more scenic route one time and not rush. Or maybe pause for a moment and notice the old lady with many shopping bags and help her get a cab. I am not saying that we do something heroic. Just help out. Be human.

Make a rule and pray to God to help you keep it, never, if possible, to lie down at night without being able to say, I have made one human being at least a little wiser, or a little happier, or at least a little better this day.” –Charles Kingsley
