God's Plan

You can't hold back the dawn
or stop the tides from flowing
Or keep a rose from withering
or still a wind that's blowing --
And time cannot be halted
in its swift and endless flight,
For age is sure to follow youth
like day comes after night. ...

Living On Purpose

Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6 (Helen Steiner Rice, From The Heart, 5 January)

Sorrow

In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to us all; and, to the young, it comes with the bitterest agony, because it takes them unawares. The older have learned to ever expect it. ... Perfect relief is not possible, except with time. (Abraham Lincoln, letter to Fanny McCullough, 23 Dec 1862) 22/Feb/2011 8:24
