A Little Bird, a Bell, and Me

Even though I open my arms wide, I still can't fly in the sky at all.
But a little bird who can fly, can't run on the ground as fast as me.

Even though I shake my body, I still can't make a sound as beautiful as a bell.
But that ringing bell, doesn't know as many songs as me.

A bell, a little bird, and me, We're all different and all wonderful.

by Misuzu KANEKO, Japanese poet

"A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others,
is stronger than any physical force in the universe."

--- Wayne Dyer, psychologist ---

 

"Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget."
----G. Randolf----

 

ON FRIENDSHIP:
"Some people come into our lives and quickly go.
Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts.
And we are never, ever the same."

--Author Unknown--

 

Become a possibilitarian.
No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are,
raise your sights and see the possibilities
---always see them, for they're always there."

--- Norman Vincent Peale, clergyman ---
