Why settle for so little in life when you can have so much, just by
daring to be different in your thinking.
- Catherine Ponder

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark.
The real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.

When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is
wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
- Helen Keller

Great achievement and great love always require great risk.

Where does the idea come from that if what we are doing is fun,
it can't be God's will? The God who made giraffes, has a sense
of humor. Make no mistake about that.
- Catherine Marshall

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

Thanks for input, will have to choose a couple, and will add interfrastically [blackadder iii!]

Have found another one in orbit: "There is no myth as big as the one that lets people feel they can do nothing and the day people decide they are not going to allow themselves to be chained, there is no chain left that can hold them in bondage. The recognition itself is the liberation." Gandhi, I love that one!

Nice. All the great ones really say the same thing don't they? I've put a couple up on my personal space thanks to this conversation..so thanks!

they do, but if you had to choose two of yours to put in my library, which one would you choose: you can't have all the space ;-}

Elinor Smith's and the Chinese proverb.

I'll go away and cry now...didn't mean to hog your space...sorry (snif)



I think this is an odd astrolgical day...I'm being very childish today - and loving it!

will add it soon...good to see you on the blue side of the fence! I have days like that...
Im currently reworking my piece on human geo, which I think is relevant to 360....

Good-oh!

We'll be doing quick astrological charts for people over on 360 hh as from today. Should be interesting...

what exactly are astrological charts?

You give your date, time and place of birth and the astrologer works out (or gets a computer to work out) where the sun, moon, mercury, venus, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, pluto and neptune were the moment you were born.

The theory is that the planets make a kind of dance through time weaving a cosmic web. When a soul hits a body (!) at the moment of birth, that web is what makes up their basic personality and gives them patterns to work with.

Make sense?

ok, 22/08/84, 0300 and Yately, Hampshire....work your magic!

it doesn't, but probably ought to!

Post those details on A794847 and AstroLion will! (and I'm off for a sneaky view now...heh heh heh).

have done...whatdyathink?

OK! I've got it all ready, but it's not letting me do it!

It took rather longer than I thought it would [the space where a blush would be if it weren't feminine ]
