Today while looking through some things I came across this quote attributed to Maya Angelou. It is called Things I Have Learned and is well worth sharing again:
"On a positive note...
I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.
I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she
handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled
Christmas tree lights.
I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life."
I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on
both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
I've learned that people will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Take My Hand and Choose...
I choose an entire new world
where to love is to learn
to unify is to solidify
to love the planet is to treat it with respect and nurture it as it has nurtured us
to love the sun and the moon is to bask in their beauty and light
to love the animals is to treat them like the friends they are
to love the plants and trees is to appreciate them for the life they give us
to love the other is to love them as you wish to be loved
to love the self is to love yourself as you would the other
No War
only negotiated peace
No exploitation
only shared enough for all
I choose an entire new world
Take my hand and choose an entire new world with me...
