 "We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty."  Mother Teresa

"The heart can act as a mind or an organ of perception because approximately 60 percent of heart cells are neural cells, which function similarly to those in the brain."  The Heart as an Organ of Perception by Stephen Harrod Buhner in Spirituality & Health March/April 2006  

"Every night, when you close your eyes, before you fall asleep, don't forget there is always someone who can use a little prayer"
~BnS  By: Lessons Learned In Life

“Go not to the temple to put flowers upon the feet of God, first fill your own house with the fragrance of love. Go not to the temple to light candles before the altar of God, first remove the darkness of sin from your heart. Go not to the temple to bow down your head in prayer, first learn to bow in humility before your fellow men. Go not to the temple to pray on bended knees, first bend down to lift someone who is down trodden. Go not to the temple to ask for forgiveness for your sins, first forgive from your heart those who have sinned against you.” ~ Rabindranath Tagore

Beauty before me, Beauty behind me, Beauty all around me, Beauty in my heart, Beauty with every step.
For ALL My Relations,
-- Dancing Rainbow

I walk with beauty before me
I walk with beauty behind me
I walk with beauty above me
I walk with beauty below me
I walk with beauty all around me
Your world is so beautiful, Oh God.
~Navajo prayer
