Far better it is to dare mighty things …

Far better it is to dare mighty things …

Here is a little mid-week inspiration, one of my favourite quotes on “doing”:
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. 
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Prayers Nourish Your Soul

Prayers Nourish Your Soul

Prayer develops our soul into its full potential.

Nothing can compare to the inner growth that is available in prayer and meditation. Prayers train and develop the faculties that express more and more of our genius... our fullness of being.

All of us have a mission for greatness in life, and we all share the same 'common well'. Prayer connects us with God and supplies us with the nourishment we need for our self-actualization.

Prayer is that direct pipe-line that accesses the water of life within.

While many can get by with some sort of 'spiritual hydration' from beauty, from good literature... it is in prayer that we draw the purest, cleanest and most abundant form.

Again, it is no coincidence that all of the greatest souls that have shaped the world for the better, have all used prayer as their fundamental tool. That is in itself proof.

The legacy of prayers that we have from the great saints, poets and philosophers can provide you with the nourishment needed to transform that spirit 'seed-potential', into a mighty oak. When you feed your spirit with the exact same nutrients that the Greatest Souls have, - you will know first hand your source of true genius, power and love.

Connection quotes

“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.”
Anais Nin


“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”
Anais Nin

“When we get too caught up in the busyness of the world, we lose connection with one another - and ourselves”
Jack Kornfield


“Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.”
Augustine of Hippo


“Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string. Accept the place the divine providence has found for you, the society of your contemporaries, the connection of events.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson


“I am for free commerce with all nations; political connection with none; and little or no diplomatic establishment”
George Washington


“I'm angry. I'm sad. It's a very difficult and sad time. It was a real deep connection, a deep marriage, so it's not that simple to say this or that one thing caused the problems. It's clear to me that our priorities shifted overnight. He's focused on his music and career. I'm focused on my baby.”
Angelina Jolie
