May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there, even when you feel most alone. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace. May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending. Teach love to those who hate, and let that love embrace you as you go out into the world. May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them. Remember, those whose lives you have touched and whose have touched yours are always a part of you, even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than the form. May you not become too concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience. May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on another's judgment of your accomplishments. May you always feel loved. -Unknown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are unified both by hating in common and by being hated in common. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52322]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are unified both by hating in common and by being hated in common.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52322</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of difficulties grow miracles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27568]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of difficulties grow miracles.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thy deathbed is no lesser than thy land, Wherein thou liest in reputation sick;  And thou, too careless patient ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53895]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thy deathbed is no lesser than thy land, Wherein thou liest in reputation sick;  And thou, too careless patient as thou art,   Committ'st thy anointed body to the cure    Of those physicians that first wounded thee.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've been more involved in football in the last one-and-a-half months here than I have been in the entire year, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35073]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've been more involved in football in the last one-and-a-half months here than I have been in the entire year,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a blessing to die for a cause, because you can so easily die for nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11450]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a blessing to die for a cause, because you can so easily die for nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes a good deal of character to judge a person by his future instead of his past ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23474]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes a good deal of character to judge a person by his future instead of his past]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But see, the shepherds shun the noonday heat, The lowing herds to murmuring brooks retreat,  To closer shades the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58269]]></link><description><![CDATA[But see, the shepherds shun the noonday heat, The lowing herds to murmuring brooks retreat,  To closer shades the panting flocks remove;   Ye gods! and is there no relief for love?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One approaches the journey's end.
