[Tosh]

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

[Tosh]

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
;D

Tosh. What kind of temples are you referring to? Brick and mortar, places where believer's meet?.. Certainly atheist's gather somewhere to convince one other of their belief's, right? Your body could be symbolic of a temple too, ya know.. It happens to house the heart. We could even say this place is symbolic of a sort of temple.. Right?

no need for complicated philosophy.

Tosh. Tosh. Tosh. You tryin' ta get a rise outta me or somethin"? Meaning, you want me to say how I think you are the most complicated and philosophical person I've ever come across in cyber-space who would pick apart to argue/debate with a sign post and do so to smithereens? Is that what you are trying to get me to do, Tosh?

Uh uh, .. I ain't bitin'.. Don't you make me call down God, Tosh. He may snatch you up and tell you just how much He loves and wants you as his own as well as all mankind.

Now don't you go messin' with my belief in God, I ain't bothering yours, so don't mess with mine.. He can be yours too if you want, Tosh.

[Tosh]

I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.

;D

[Tosh]

Humanism is optimistic regarding human nature and confident in human reason and science as the best means of reaching the goal of human fulfillment in this world. Humanists affirm that humans are a product of the same evolutionary process that produced all other living organisms and that all ideas, knowledge, values, and social systems are based upon human experience. Humanists conclude that creative ability and personal responsibility are strongest when the mind is free from supernatural belief and operates in an atmosphere of freedom and democracy.

[Tosh]

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength.

Forgiveness is freeing up and putting to better use the energy once cosumed by holding grudges, harboring resentments, and nursing unhealed wounds. It is rediscovering the strenghts we always had and relocating our limitless capacity to understand and accept other people and ourselves.

[weezybear]

Is there someone or something in your life that you need fo forgive today, in order to be FREE?

[Tosh]

Is there someone or something in your life that you need fo forgive today, in order to be FREE?

I am not sure what you mean by forgiving something, can you elaborate ?

gratitude is an attitude that hooks up our source of supp;y. And the more grateful you are, the closer you become to your maker, to the achitect of the universe, to the spiritual care of our being.

Love is patient
love is kind
it always protects,
always trusts, always hopes.
always percerveres
love never falls.

When the world says, "Give up,"
Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."

The wings of hope carry us, soaring high above the driving winds of life.

Without hope life is meaning less and less.

Ummm, no, not at all. We're already firmly entrenched in our beliefs, and they came about after a great deal of soul searching. No more convincing is necessary.

May today be peace within. May you trust that you aree exactly where you are meant to be. May you use the gifts that you have recieved, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise, and love. It is there for each and every one of us."

Fit in being the real you.

All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own.

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.

God has given you one face, yet you make yourself another.

He who trims himself to suit everyone will soon whittle himself away.

I was once afraid of people saying, "Who does she think she is?" Now I have the courage to stand and say, "This is who I am."

If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise.

Learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not.

Why We Dance

To dance is to pray
To pray is to heal
To heal is to give
To give is to live
To live is to dance

[weezybear]

I am a Woman

no matter what you say

All things in life change, it happens with valid reason so if you doubt why it happens to you, stick to this; we can never learn to be brave and patient if there's only joy in the world.

[weezybear]

As we grow up, we learn that the people that weren't sopposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break other hearts. You'll blame a new love for things an old did. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll cry because time is flying by. Eventually you'll lose someone you love. So take to many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely and love like you've never been hurt.
Because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get beck

[weezybear]

Life is an interesting journey, never know were it'll take you
What you need to do is be thankful for the life you got! Stop looking at what you don't have and start being thankful for what you do have.

[femmefatale]

Weezy, I hope You don't mind if I borrow this for the God thread. Thanks. Great quote.

[weezybear]

Fear is a spirit that keeps you sitting,
Boldness helps you stand
Humility reminds us when to sit again
Pride never sits only stands.

Behind closed doors they had what were legendary battles I hear but when the doors opened there was absolute unity. Not a crack could be found. No separation whatsoever. They were locked together for the good of the community.

It is wiser that a person of prudence and purpose save his strength for battles that can be won.

Pick battles big enough to matter, small enough to win.

Don't sweat the small stuff or small stuffy thinkers.. Pick your battles wisely.

[weezybear]

Life isn't about all the happy times we have, Its about living through all the chalenges l ife has given us, and all that we have ever been through.

[weezybear]

Some days we just get stuck,and bogged down.
Some days all you can do is smile and wait for someone to kindly remove your but from the hole you find it wedged into.
