I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away!

If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O that this too too sullied flesh would melt, Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew,  Or that the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12013]]></link><description><![CDATA[O that this too too sullied flesh would melt, Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew,  Or that the Everlasting had not fixed   His canon 'gainst self-slaughter.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12013</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is the journal of a sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46790]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry is the journal of a sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45175]]></link><description><![CDATA[The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we are saved, we are at home in the universe; and, in principle and in the main, feeble and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6534]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we are saved, we are at home in the universe; and, in principle and in the main, feeble and timid creatures as we are, there is nothing anywhere within the world or without it that can make us afraid.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4096]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're all so busy these days that it's hard for parents to spend time with their kids.
