Ponderable and poem for Monday, June 30, 2008
Alan Harris
Freedom, to the aimless, may seem a jail.
Random Thoughts
A human is a handshake between spirit and matter.
If faith can move mountains, just imagine what knowledge can do.
A magnet can convert a piece of steel into another magnet,
but what made the magnet a magnet?
If we could just trust the universe to know what it is doing,
we would have more joy and less fear.
Money is the essence of matter; it never leaves the earth.
The universe is a great magnet teaching us little pins to act like it.
A loving thought is as deep as the night sky.
The "Great Books of the Western World" are like newspapers next to the Book of Life.
When wealth speaks, greed listens.
Computers can be mirrors in which we admire our minds and forget our souls.
We crawl through life like caterpillars, fearing the final cocoon that alone leads to freedom and glory.
