Thought for the day - one's own small actions, multiplied by everyone's small actions, and a tidal wave of change can occur! Lyme action, the Occupy movement - up to almost 1000 cities now, etc.
Thx for all your pithy statements - you are a nonstop Lymenet contributor!

Thought for the day....... "From the living fountain of instinct flows everything that is creative; hence the unconscious is not merely conditioned by history, but is the very source of the creative impulse. It is like Nature herself - prodigiously conservative, and yet transcending her own historical conditions in her acts of creation....." Carl Jung
Thanks, Robin! Thanks for your statement regarding tidal waves CAN occur!!

Thought for the day....... ``We communicate grace to one another by holding space for people when they are hurt or terrified, instead of trying to fix them, or manage their emotions for them. We offer ourselves as silent companionship, or gentle listening when someone feels very alone. We get people glasses of water when they are thirsty.'' Anne Lamott

Thought for the day....... ``If you can approach the world's complexities, both its glories and its horrors, with an attitude of humble curiosity, acknowledging that however deeply you have seen, you have only just scratched the surface, you will find worlds within worlds, beauties you could not heretofore imagine, and your own mundane preoccupations will shrink to proper size, not all that important in the greater scheme of things.''

Thought for the day....... "The unique personality which is the real life in me, I can not gain unless I search for the real life, the spiritual quality, in others. I am myself spiritually dead unless I reach out to the fine quality dormant in others. For it is only with the god enthroned in the innermost shrine of the other, that the god hidden in me, will consent to appear." Felix Adler
