For last year’s words belong to last year’s language and next year’s words await another voice. T.S. Eliot
A: Lucy L: Aslan? A: What have you done, child? L: I don’t know… that was awful. A: But you chose it, Lucy. L: I didn’t mean to chose all of that … I wanted to be beautiful like Susan, that’s all. A: You wished yourself away, and with it, much more. Your brothers and sister wouldn’t know Narnia without you Lucy. L: I am so sorry. A: You doubt your value....
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
C.S. Lewis
For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

“The circumstances of a saint’s life are ordained of God. In the life of a saint there is no such thing as chance. God by His providence brings you into circumstances that you can’t understand at all, but the Spirit of God understands. God brings you to places, among people, and into certain conditions to accomplish a definite purpose through the intercession of the Spirit in you...
Christmas is a day of meaning and traditions, a special day spent in the warm circle of family and friends. Margaret Thatcher
Somehow, not only for Christmas but all the long year through, The joy that you give to others is the joy that comes back to you. And the more you spend in blessing The poor and lonely and sad, The more your heart’s possessing Returns to you glad.
John Greenleaf Whittier
Fall on your knees Oh hear the angel voices Oh Night Divine Oh Night when Christ was born Oh Night Divine Oh Night Divine
Oh Holy Night | The effect that this song has on my soul is indescribable | brings tears to my eyes every time | To think God would chose to send his son for us = unfathomable.
Don’t let your mind get weary and confused Your will be still, don’t try Don’t let your heart get heavy child Inside you there’s a strength that lies Don’t let your soul get lonely child It’s only time, it will go by Don’t look for love in faces, places It’s in you, that’s where you’ll find kindness Be here now, here now Be here now, here...
Our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world… as in being able to remake ourselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
But they tell me it’s a treacherous affair that the words I sing are nothing but cathedrals in the air
In the innocence of a sound so sweet I am helpless to repress the light in me and I’d like to fall I’d like to fall

And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything. William Shakespeare

Seven shooting stars in one night The water and sand in our eyesight The rocks in our hands preparing for flight The lack of sleeping but it’s alright And it’s all And it’s all And it’s all And it’s alright Peter Broderick | And It’s Alright
The meaning of life is to find your gift, the purpose of life is to give it away.

Won’t somebody come on in and tug at my seams? Oh, send your armies in of robbers and thieves To steal the state I’m in I don’t want it anymore Sara Barielles | Basketcase
This is what you should do: love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning god, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off you hat to nothing known or unknown, or any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated people,...
What sort of pressure and what kind of force must there have been to drive you here? Was it uplifting or was it deformed? Faulting and rifting, you folded. What does it feel like to fall in slow motion despite it all? There’s no time to think it through when we’re connected over the blue. Everything is moving so fast. I am unlimited. Everything is moving so fast. I am unlimited.
Great...
Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.
Charles Dickens
May you know that you have the power, To add beauty and grace into this world. May you discover all your gifts and give them generously, May you listen for God’s every word. Maeve | Benediction
Stand at the crossroads and look; Ask for the ancient paths, Ask where the good way is, and walk in it, And you will find rest for your souls. Jeremiah 6:16

Take my hand, I’ll teach you to dance. I’ll spin you around, won’t let you fall down. Would you let me lead you, you can step on my feet. Give it a try it’ll be alright.
