An optimist isn't necessarily a blithe, sappy whistler in the dark.
To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic.
If we remember those times and places
where people have behaved magnificently,
where people have behaved magnificently,
this gives us energy to act and at least the possibility of sending
this spinning top of a world in a different direction.
-- Howard Zinn
Today my prayer consisted in simply going to my heart and
remembering all the folks I've stored there.
It is not cold storage.
It is a quite warm and tender place.
-- Sr. Macrina Wiederkehr, OSB
A Tree Full of Angels
When I count my blessings,
I count you twice.
-- Irish Proverb
