Inspiration
 
“It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowds keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.” Ralph Waldo Emerson The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it Michelangelo “When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direcction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be” Pantajali, 300 B.C.
Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.

It is in the admission of ignorance and the admission of uncertainty that there is a hope for the continuous motion of human beings in some direction that doesn't get confined, permanently blocked, as it has so many times before in various periods in the history of man.
 
Richard P. Feynman
Great Spirit, I am Mother. I was made by You so that the image of Your love Could be brought into existence. May I always carry with me The sacredness of this honour. Creator, I am Daughter. I am the learner of the Traditions. May I carry them forward So that the Elders and Ancestors Will be remembered for all time. Maker-Of-All-Things, I am Sister. Through me, may my brothers be shown The manner in which I am to be respected. May I join with my sisters in strength and power as a Healing Shield So that they will no longer bear the stain of abuse. Niskam, I am Committed Partner: One who shares her spirit, But is wise to remember never to give it away, Lest it become lost, And the two become less than one. I am Woman. Hear me. Welal'in. Ta'ho!
