Evening Wisdom, Thoughts and Beauty



A generous man forgets what he gives and remembers what he receives.
Old Proverb



Ninety percent of the friction of daily life is caused by the wrong tone of voice.



If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.
Chinese Proverb



Enlightenment is the "quiet acceptance of what is" I believe
the truly enlightened beings are those who refuse to allow
themselves to be distressed over things that simply are the
way they are.
Wayne Dyer

Sylvia,

Your blog becomes more of a theraputic break from day to day life everytime I stop by. I leave feeling...Lighter. Truly. 'Ninety percent of the friction of daily life is caused by the wrong tone of voice' is something I recently learned for myself. Thanks for your posts :) Have a good night...

There is actually a lot of truth in these proverbs. I wonder which one I should adopt. The calmest one.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
