In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

"Anxiety is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained." ----- Arthur Somers Roche "Nothing diminishes anxiety faster than action." ----- Walter Anderson "When I am anxious it is because I am living in the future. When I am depressed it is because I am living in the past." ----- Author Unknown (hmm...I think I am most usually one or the other. )

"When I am anxious it is because I am living in the future. When I am depressed it is because I am living in the past." ----- Author Unknown (hmm...I think I am most usually one or the other. ) If it's any consolation, I think most of us are. Pretty good quote to remember though, i've never heard it before.

“I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”

"F.I.N.E. - F*cked up, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional" (and I thought all these years I'd been lying whenever I said I was "fine." I guess I haven't been. ) "A friend is one who knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts who you have become, and still gently allows you to grow." --- William Shakespeare

Random George Carlin quote that came up on facebook...
"The seven dwarfs were each on different little trips. Happy was into grass and grass alone... Happy, that's all he did. Sleepy was into reds. Grumpy. Too much speed. Sneezy was a full blown coke freak. Doc was a connection. Dopey was into everything. Any old orifice will do for Dopey. He's always got his arm out and his leg up. And then, the one we always forget, because he was, Bashful. Bashful didn't use drugs. He was paranoid on his own. Didn't need any help on that ladder."
Personally, I'm not offended at all. ;D
