Although I must have Martha's hands, I have a Mary mind, And when I black the boots and shoes, Thy sandals, Lord, I find. I think of how they trod the earth, what time I scrub the floor: Accept this meditation, Lord, I haven't time for more. Warm all the kitchen with Thy love, and light it with Thy peace; Forgive me all my worrying, and make my grumbling cease. Thou who didst love to give men food, in room or by the sea, Accept this service that I do -- I do it unto Thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6520</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been rich and I've been poor.

Or recall the infinite pains that have been taken, down the centuries, to preserve minute orthodoxy in all points of mental belief while ugly evils flaunt along the streets and are accepted meekly as part of the makeup of things! Or recollect how easy it is to assume that we, ourselves, are Christian people. Why? Oh, well, just the usual reasons: we say our prayers, when we are not too sleepy; and we come to church, when there is nothing much to do; and so, of course, there is no doubt of it, although our tempers may remain uncurbed, and our characters are not the least like Jesus Christ's, nor growing any nearer it! Do we not need that solemn warning that Christ gives us when He tells us bluntly that many people lose their lives and souls, because they are always laying the emphasis and stress on the wrong points?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gravity is not responsible for people falling in love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25672]]></link><description><![CDATA[Gravity is not responsible for people falling in love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People intoxicate themselves with work so they won't see how they really are. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63741]]></link><description><![CDATA[People intoxicate themselves with work so they won't see how they really are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63741</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.
