Quote (s) for the Day:

"The value of compassion cannot be over-emphasized.

Anyone can criticize.

It takes a true believer to be compassionate.

No greater burden can be born by an individual

than to know no one cares or understands."

Arthur H. Stainback

***

"How is one to live a moral and compassionate

existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror

inherent in life, when one finds darkness

not only in one's culture but within oneself?

If there is a stage at which an individual

life becomes truly adult,

it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding

and accepts responsibility for a life lived

in the midst of such paradox.

One must live in the middle of contradiction,

because if all contradiction were eliminated

at once life would collapse.

There are simply no answers to some of

the great pressing questions.

You continue to live them out,

making your life a

worthy expression

of leaning into the light. "

Barry Lopez

***

"Honesty is the recognition of the fact that the unreal is unreal

and can have no value,

that neither love nor fame nor cash

is a value if obtained by fraud

- that an attempt to gain a value by deceiving the

mind of others is an act of raising your victims

to a position higher than reality,

where you become a pawn of their blindness,

a slave of their non-thinking

and their evasions,

while their intelligence,

their rationality,

their perceptiveness become the enemies

you have to dread and flee

- that you do not care to live as a dependent,

least of all a dependent on the stupidity of others,

or as a fool whose source of values

is the fools he succeeds in fooling

- that honesty is not a social duty,

not a sacrifice for the sake of others,

but the most profoundly

selfish virtue man can practice:

his refusal to sacrifice

the reality of his own existence

to the deluded consciousness of others. "

Ayn Rand

Working hard to accept my set of circumstances,

say "yes" to my today,

and continue to

"work for it, don't wish for it"

May the world be yours today,

I am asking for a sale today,

yes I am asking for a sale...

I need to re-coup my relocation costs, and pay the rent,

so I am asking for what I need,

I need a sale today to make some things in my life

work better.

Money isn't an issue until you have not

enough to cover your families basic needs.

I need those needs met, and so I will do as I always do...

ask for my needs to be met, with out pretense or lies.

I live a transparent life, I don't lie to gain,

and I appreciate the open hearts of those

who understand this ideal.

I am asking for the sale,

go see if there is a way you

can help support this living artist.

Open your minds, hearts and souls,

and then consider what I have to offer in return,

myself, true and whole...and full of Soul.

RAW, Radient & Unafraid...
