No matter the path, savor the journey and the destination when you arrive.
    —     Anthony T. Hincks
[On a journey of 1,000 steps, the first and last steps may “feel” the most important, but until the very last step, it’s the next step which leads to arrival at your personal destination.    —    kmab]

We Are All On A Pilgrimage

Posted in Philosophy, Quotes, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 22, 2025| Leave a Comment »

Civilization had its beginning around an open fire.
Here at its warmth gathered the family group to find safety, comfort, and companionship.  Trace the origin of our word fireplace and you will find it definitely related to the Latin word focus.  There is the explanation of what home has always meant;  for home is the center of life,  —  no mere residence of the body but the axis of the heart;  the place where affections develop themselves, where children love and learn, where two toil together to make life a blessing.
To picture in a word the depths of want, we say of a man that he is homeless.  True, life is a journey, and we are all on a pilgrimage.  But when distance has lost its enchantment and the ardor for adventure has cooled, when danger has been bravely faced and wonder satiated, hearts long for a resting place and find in the ruddy glows of the hearth-fire “the charm from the skies” that hallows life and gives refuge to man’s tired soul.

You Know Not

Journey
Be Kind,
For you know not the strength of your words,
On the heart.
Be Thoughtful,
For you know not the strength of your understanding,
On the Mind.
Be Brave,
For you know not the strength of your courage,
On the Journey.
[The above poem is from one of the blogs I have followed for several years:  FORGOTTENMEADOWS:  thoughts from my mind to yours

Don’t Stop Believin’
Favorite Line(s):
Workin’ hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin’ anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
