Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

Your friend is your needs answered.
Kahlil Gibran



If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.
Rabindranath Tagore



Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Kahlil Gibran



Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to seek other than itself.
Kahlil Gibran



Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add colour to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore

    Your site prompted me to read the biography of Kahlil Gibran on Wikipedia. Fascinating guy, fascinating life. read The Prophet years ago before I understood anything about anything. tahnks as usual for your posts which exude good will.

    Your final quote was all about attitude and I think you have the right one.
