Too true

LOVE THIS!!!!

In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter

Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

Your head is humming, and it won't go, in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him

If you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one, and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

Robert Plant / James Patrick (Stairway to heaven, Led Zeplin)

What a conversation one could have around this...and, everyday a different one.

RB.

True strength lies in humility, not in orchestrating praise or seeking validation through others.

Authentic leaders inspire, they don't manufacture admiration.

-Unknown-

When criticism arises, respond with grace, not by soliciting fanfare.

-Unknown-

It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up. The struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need tomorrow. Happiness is the only thing that multiplies when you share it. The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

No Masters or Kings
When the Ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
Amen
