Oh, I love Khalil Gibran. I carried a little book around with me for ever so long.
I love the one about children too... it means a lot to me at this moment in time. Quote:
http://oldpoetry.com/opoem/13488-Kha...ren-Chapter-IV Speaking of mountains... You know that old saying about making it to the top of the mountain? Well, I figure once we think you've reached the top of the mountain we need to keep climbing... not go down the other side. Alone alone across the sea, Alone forever I shall be ~ Lara circa '99 |

Moi, I love that saying. I made a slide for a friend, I put the saying on one of my favorite artists Jim Warren prints.
Another favorite, by Helen Keller

Thank you all for making my day. Somehow, someone here always manages to bring me out no matter how dark it gets.... *a toast to always remaining close in heart and spirit.

Lara and wren, I have "a tear and a smile" and I love it....
I read the Prophet many years ago... do you guys care to recommend anything else? (like a best of collection or something?) nik and mist, glad you guys liked it...I find Kahlil....inspirational....and calm.... makes me want to go and do some yoga now, but I think I'll just eat some yogurt...LOL PS, Lara, but the mountain top will end at the summit...and coming down makes a good circle of a complete journey.

I have heard that the journey down from places like Everest (not metaphorical mountains ) is actually more difficult than the journey up. hmmnn |
