[Continued tomorrow]  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 5, 1998  And let us be grateful beyond words for this: that God will not let us alone until we have learnt it and stand by His side. He troubles us, He brings His disturbing light back and back to us, showing us how coarse and heavy the dying self, seeking her own, is; how horrible it is that any feeling of unforgiveness, accepted and held on to, towards our brother, drives God from our side; how quickly we must do all we can to heal the separation, because we are out in the cold and the dark indeed, if divorced from that Love.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 6, 1998  Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597  Prayer is the expression of a good desire. The human heart is full of restless desires, and the prayers of men consist for the most part of the unsifted petitions which are urged by their varying passions. To desire what is right, and to desire it consistently, and passionately, is the first condition of true living; the desires can be corrected only by truth, the mind must apprehend God, and then it will say, "There is none upon earth that I desire beside Thee.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Behold the Sea, The opaline, the plentiful and strong,  Yet beautiful as is the rose in June,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44887]]></link><description><![CDATA[Behold the Sea, The opaline, the plentiful and strong,  Yet beautiful as is the rose in June,   Fresh as the trickling rainbow of July;    Sea full of food, the nourisher of kinds,     Purger of earth, and medicine of men;      Creating a sweet climate by my breath,       Washing out harms and griefs from memory,        And, in my mathematic ebb and flow,         Giving a hint of that which changes not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune may rob us of our wealth, not of our courage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51145]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune may rob us of our wealth, not of our courage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51145</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We liberated 24 cases of Scotch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34132]]></link><description><![CDATA[We liberated 24 cases of Scotch.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is sufficient reward in the mere consciousness of a good action. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48882]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is sufficient reward in the mere consciousness of a good action.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48882</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our system is not one of justice, but of law. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24275]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our system is not one of justice, but of law.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even when students graduate from universities, they are not able to fill the intellectual positions that need to be filled. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29108]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even when students graduate from universities, they are not able to fill the intellectual positions that need to be filled.
