Farewell My Friend

It was beautiful as long as it lasted

The journey of my life.

I have no regrets whatsoever

save the pain I'll leave behind.

Those dear hearts who love and care...

And the strings pulling at the heart and soul...

The strong arms that held me up

When my own strength let me down.

At every turning of my life

I came across good friends,

Friends who stood by me,

Even when the time raced me by.

Farewell, farewell my friends

I smile and bid you goodbye.

No, shed no tears for I need them not

All I need is your smile.

If you feel sad do think of me

for that's what I'll like

when you live in the hearts

of those you love, remember then

you never die.

- Gitanjali Ghei

But what a cruel thing is war

to separate and destroy families and friends,

God has granted us in this world,

instead of love for our neighbors,

and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world!

- Robert E. Lee

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.

- Albert Einstein

Anger and Danger are intimately intertwined.

An angry person is a dangerous person,

whether that person crosses our path

or whether the angry person is ourself.

To complete the anger/danger cycle,

whenever we feel threatened -

when we believe we are in danger -

we tend to exhibit anger as well as fear.

We look for someone to blame for the dangerous situation,

and direct our anger toward them.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anger is like a thorn in the heart.

- Yiddish Proverb

Forgiving others is a gift to yourself,

given not because the other deserves pardon,

but because you deserve the serenity and joy

that comes from releasing resentment and anger,

and from embracing universal forgiveness.

Doing an injury puts you below your enemy;

revenging one make you but even with him;

- Benjamin Franklin [attributed]

Being angry harms your physical,

emotional, and spiritual well-being.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Forgive those who have injured you -

not because they deserve your forgiveness,

but because you can never be happy

until you release your anger and grant forgiveness.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.

- Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi

During his training, a baseball player strives

to make each swing better than the last.

The repetition of a faulty swing would be worse than useless.

It would ingrain bad habits.

The same is true of emotional responses.

If we allow ourselves to continue to have the same angry responses,

we just entrench our anger habit.

But if we strive - through consciousness, visualization, and coaching -

to moderate our anger response,

over time, we can train ourselves to respond

to events as we choose - without anger.

You can't magically be free from anger tomorrow,

but you can put yourself on your own training program

that will reduce the frequency and intensity

of your anger response day by day, year by year.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

In a controversy, the instant we feel anger

we have already ceased striving for the truth,

and have begun striving for ourselves.

Anger is a killing thing:

it kills the man who angers,

it takes something from him.

Cry for the souls of the angry,

for they sleep the troubled sleep of the damned.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anger is an acid that can do more harm

to the vessel in which it is stored

than to anything on which it is poured.

- Mark Twain

I forgive everyone for every "wrong"

that I believe they have ever inflicted upon me.

I forgive them for my own sake,

that I may release the venom -

the anger and resentment within myself -

and regain my joy and serenity.

I have compassion for everyone who has ever

been a player upon the stage of my life.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anger is something that each one of us has experienced -

some of us only occasionally, some almost daily.

Can we eliminate all anger? Probably not.

We will always have expectations,

and those expectations will often be unmet.

Disappointment is the principle cause of anger.

When we are disappointed, we look for someone to blame.

Declaring someone to be at fault is the nature of anger.

Anger is always directed at someone -

possibly toward God or the non-specific "they,"

but at some animate entity.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anger is the enemy of non-violence

and pride is a monster that swallows it up.

- Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi

The answers that you are content to not know.

cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.

- Anais Nin

Feeling overwhelmed by apparent demands on our time

is like going to a restaurant,

ordering everything on the menu,

and complaining about indigestion.

Gratitude is like the prayer, while

Celebration is the hymn and sacred dance.

Celebration is its own road to happiness.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

A discussion of philosophy is like a cat chasing its tail -

it may be an amusing diversion but

it has no chance for a satisfying conclusion.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

"I can forgive, but I cannot forget,"

is only another way of saying, I will not forgive.

Forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note -

torn in two, and burned up,

so that it never can be shown against one.

- Henry Ward Beecher

A divorce is like an amputation:

you survive it, but there's less of you.

- Margaret Atwood

Football is like life - it requires perseverance,

self-denial, hard work, sacrifice,

dedication and respect for authority.

Sing like no one is listening.

Live life like it's heaven on earth.

like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.

- Zhuangzi

We are formed and molded by our thoughts.

Those whose minds are shaped by selfless thoughts

give joy when they speak or act.

Joy follows them like a shadow that never leaves them.

- The Buddha

To dream of the person you would like to be

is to waste the person you are.

- Anonymous

Act the way you'd like to be
