There are things you can't back down on, things you gotta take a stand on. But it's up to you to decide what them things are.
~ Mildred D. Taylor in ROLL OF THUNDER, HEAR MY CRY
Practice is everything; you practice to acquire facility in every art; but not one of these will repay you to the extent that the practice of joyousness will.Fall asleep at night, awaken in the morning; in the silence know, "All is joy." Then one day it will begin to work within you; you'll retain that joy as a permanent consciousness. Seek ye the realm of joy -- one of Love's holy attributes!
