About Worry: "I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened." Mark Twain
This is a great thread Pakar...thank-you! To extend on your rain reference above: I was watching the NYC St. Patricks Day Parade. It started to snow...a moderately heavy...very wet snow. One of the host's asked a parade dignitary: What do you think of this snow? He answered...oh.....it is just 'liquid sunshine'! |

Wake up everyday and no matter how crappy you feel, want to change something for the better. Do something that makes someone happy. Create something that inspires someone. Be someone’s light when they are hopeless.

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of ‘disaster,’ I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world.”
- Fred Rogers -

While it is always easier to be cynical and give up on your dreams.
No man (or woman) is an island. So it goes, by that logic... "Never give up your dreams, You don't know who is watching you now, You don't know who you're inspiring at this very moment. While you may feel insignificant, There is somebody who is looking up to you. It may be a child, a friend or a stranger, So choose to inspire them. Never give up your dreams."

Pakar, thank Devious who sent me here to your ten plus year-old thread. And it will take me some time to navigate, but you seem to be a good person Pakar, despite that you keep banning me on that other thread!
What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about?
My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums. |

Brother Pakar from Malaysia,
although you didn't know it at the time, I was suffering through some serious issues. I used to visit here often during those moments. I thank you for inspiring so many folks to provide the words, that have helped many folks try to find some comfort in knowing, that we have so much, to be thankful for. This made me smile and I hope it does for you as well! |

I'm so glad that you and others have found a little comfort in this thread I started, so long ago it seems now. So sorry for your loss. I know she is in a better place. Most of these sayings aren't mine, so to the extent of taking any credit... I really don't deserve any, as I was just sharing words that have helped and comforted me. Those who uttered these beautiful sayings are to be thanked. They are just words, but sometimes, a few kind words is all we need to lift our spirits. To know that others have felt and gone through what we're feeling and going through can make a world of difference. Brother, I'm glad that though thousands of miles stand between us, a few words can bind us in friendship and brotherhood. Brother Devious, thank you again. It does mean a lot and you just made my day. And thank you to Steve Brooks and The Magic Café staff for this wonderful place. And that is a BEAUTIFUL PICTURE.
