Clearly the more premature an infant is when he is born, the greater likelihood of complications. In fact, according to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services National Center for Health Statistics, complications stemming from short gestation and low birth weight are the second leading causes of infant mortality in the United States. Ironically, the advanced medical technologies used in the United States tend to increase our infant mortality rate, not decrease it. In the United States, advanced technologies and procedures have made it more practical in recent years for medical professionals to attempt to save severely premature infants. Such attempts do not always succeed, adding to the rate of infant mortality.] Resuscitation is more likely to be attempted on extremely premature babies born in the United States than in many other countries, ... The extremely premature babies on whom resuscitation is unsuccessful are then counted as infant deaths, whereas they are counted as fetal deaths when resuscitation has not been attempted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not easy to bear prosperity unruffled. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50738]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not easy to bear prosperity unruffled.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Responsibility educates. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54002]]></link><description><![CDATA[Responsibility educates.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54002</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56199]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56199</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Uncertainty and mystery are energies of life.
