A quarter of an hour of this prayer, brings you out of your closet a new man; your heart feels the good of it; and every return of such a prayer, gives new life and growth to all your virtues, with more certainty, than the dew refreshes the herbs of the field: whereas, overlooking this true prayer of your own heart, and only at certain times taking a prayer that you find in a book, you have nothing to wonder at, if you are every day praying, and yet every day sinking further and further under all your infirmities. [Continued tomorrow].]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you - Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like no-one is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11017]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you - Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like no-one is watching, screw like it's being filmed, and drink like a true Irishman]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11017</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How are thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12133]]></link><description><![CDATA[How are thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45035]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He enters the port with a full sail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51799]]></link><description><![CDATA[He enters the port with a full sail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think this is a bearish report because average hourly earnings are ticking up significantly.

You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity asa vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise ingiving. A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can giveyourself gifts that may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, orsome time each day with no purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough toaccept these gifts without obligation-to simply receive from yourself, andfrom the universe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21990</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No padlocks, bolts, or bars can secure a maiden better than her own reserve. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1194]]></link><description><![CDATA[No padlocks, bolts, or bars can secure a maiden better than her own reserve.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1194</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him; for he loves to hear  That unicorns may be betrayed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16170]]></link><description><![CDATA[If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him; for he loves to hear  That unicorns may be betrayed with trees   And bears with glasses, elephants with holes,    Lions with toils, and men with flatterers,     He says he does, being then most flattered.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, how wretched Is that poor man that hangs on princes' favors!  There is betwixt that smile we would ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54508]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, how wretched Is that poor man that hangs on princes' favors!  There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,   That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,    More pangs and fears than wars or women have;     And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,      Never to hope again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Envy feeds on the living.
