Care gives latitude to another person and gets you past the dislikes and annoyances. Quite simply, caring sustains love. Doc Childre and Sara Paddison, HeartMath Discovery Program Are there certain friends you turn to when you have a problem or need to be listened to? Think about this: - Are they compassionate, understanding and nurturing? - Are they totally present, giving you their undivided attention? - Do they try to solve your problems for you or do they help you to get clarity so that you can solve your own problems? - Do they let you talk until you're done? Chances are the people you turn to for support and understanding are good listeners. You can develop these qualities as well and take them even deeper into "essence understanding" through mastering deep heart listening. James Allen In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, for in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. Frances Ward Weller -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23063]]></link><description><![CDATA[The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To leave this keen encounter of our wits. -King Richard III.

What heavy burdens from our bosoms take,  What parched ground refresh as with a shower! We kneel, and all around us seems to lower; We rise, and all, the distant and the near, Stands forth in sunny outline brave and clear; We kneel, how weak! we rise, how full of power! Why, therefore, should we do ourselves this wrong,  Or other, that we are not always strong, That we are ever overborne with care, That we should ever weak or heratless be, Anxious or troubled, when with us is prayer, And joy and strength and courage are with Thee!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now it is established in the sciences that no knowledge is acquired save through the study of its causes and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29753]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now it is established in the sciences that no knowledge is acquired save through the study of its causes and beginnings, if it has had causes and beginnings; nor completed except by knowledge of its accidents and accompanying essentials.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29753</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When envoys are sent with compliments in their mouths, it is a sign that the enemy wishes for a truce. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64110]]></link><description><![CDATA[When envoys are sent with compliments in their mouths, it is a sign that the enemy wishes for a truce.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I truly believe that individuals can make a difference in society.

Whenever, by exertion in any unselfish cause, health is broken or fortune impaired, or influential friends estranged, the follower of Christ is called an enthusiast, a fanatic, or even more plainly a man of unsound mind. He may be comforted by remembering that Jesus was said to be beside Himself when teaching and healing left Him not leisure even to eat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[British people don't feel they can tear themselves away from their desk, and have developed a very functional relationship with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42184]]></link><description><![CDATA[British people don't feel they can tear themselves away from their desk, and have developed a very functional relationship with food.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If Lafayette Parish wants to attract new businesses and have jobs, it needs to address the facility needs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39524]]></link><description><![CDATA[If Lafayette Parish wants to attract new businesses and have jobs, it needs to address the facility needs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39524</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why should the brave Spanish soldiers brag?
