What if it is for life's sake that we must die? In truth we are not individuals; and it is because we think ourselves such that death seems unforgivable. We are temporary organs of the race, cells in the body of life; we die and drop away that life may remain young and strong. If we were to live forever, growth would be stifled, and youth would find no room on earth. Death, like style, is the removal of rubbish, the circumcision of the superfluous. In the midst of death life renews itself immortally.

Life is a constant learning experience.
You will be presented with lessons, specific to you. Learning them is the key to the meaning of your life. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Your development is a process trial and error, so things will not always go to plan. Lessons repeat until learned. Problems and challenges, irritations and frustrations are more lessons - they will repeat until you learn from them. Learning does not end. While you are alive there are always lessons to be learned. -- Cherie Carter-Scott |
Good Timber
The tree that never had to fight For sun and sky and air and light, But stood out in the open plain And always got its share of rain, Never became a forest king But lived and died a scrubby thing. The man who never had to toil To gain and farm his patch of soil, Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light and air, Never became a manly man But lived and died as he began. Good timber does not grow with ease: The stronger wind, the stronger trees; The further sky, the greater length; The more the storm, the more the strength. By sun and cold, by rain and snow, In trees and men good timbers grow. Where thickest lies the forest growth, We find the patriarchs of both. And they hold counsel with the stars Whose broken branches show the scars Of many winds and much of strife. This is the common law of life. --by Douglas Malloch |
