He held that all annoyances, frustrations, disappointments, mishaps, discomforts, hardships, sorrows, pains, and even final disaster iteself, are simply God's way of teaching us lessons that we could never else learn. That circumstances do not matter, are nothing, but that the response of the spirit that meets them is everything; that there is no situation in human life, however apparently adverse, nor any human relationship, however apparently uncongenial, that cannot be made, if God be in the heart, into a thing of perfect joy; that, in order to attain this ultimate perfection, one must accept every experience and learn to love all persons... that the worth of life is is not to be measured by its results in achievement or success, but solely by the motives of the heart and the efforts of one's will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, take the sense, sweet, of my innocence Love takes the meaning in love's conference. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20961]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, take the sense, sweet, of my innocence Love takes the meaning in love's conference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All human activity is prompted by desire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11988]]></link><description><![CDATA[All human activity is prompted by desire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Weep no more, nor sigh, nor groan, Sorrow calls no time that's gone:  Violets plucked the sweetest rain  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58797]]></link><description><![CDATA[Weep no more, nor sigh, nor groan, Sorrow calls no time that's gone:  Violets plucked the sweetest rain   Makes not fresh nor grow again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The borough has labor counsel and labor counsel is not here, so we are not in a position to respond ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38766]]></link><description><![CDATA[The borough has labor counsel and labor counsel is not here, so we are not in a position to respond to the offer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38766</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Understanding is a two-way street. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Understanding is a two-way street.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Youth is, after all, just a moment, but it is the moment, the spark, that you always carry in your ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62541]]></link><description><![CDATA[Youth is, after all, just a moment, but it is the moment, the spark, that you always carry in your heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The communities' response to our newsletter has been phenomenal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35441]]></link><description><![CDATA[The communities' response to our newsletter has been phenomenal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8612]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely difficult to find, of living every day as though it were our last, and yet living in faith and responsibility as though there were to be a great future.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our nature is the mind.
