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[Known by the sobriquet of "The Artful Dodger." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43642]]></link><description><![CDATA[Known by the sobriquet of "The Artful Dodger."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43642</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's a great guitar player.

Our affections are not ours to be blighted and crucified; they are ours to be deepened and purified. The rich opportunities of life are not held out to us only to be snatched away by an invisible hand patiently waiting for the hour when the cup is sweetest; they are given to us that we may grow, alike through their rise or their withdrawal. They are real, they are sweet, and they are worthy of our longing for them; we gain nothing by calling them dross, or the world an illusion, or ourselves the victims of deception, or by exalting renunciation as the highest virtue. When these opportunities are denied us, it is a real, not an imaginary, loss which we sustain; and our part is not that of bare renunciation, of simple surrender; our part is to recognize the loss, to bear the pain, and to find a deeper and richer life in doing the will of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45860]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45860</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If intellection and knowledge were mere passion from without, or the bare reception of extraneous and adventitious forms, then no ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46288]]></link><description><![CDATA[If intellection and knowledge were mere passion from without, or the bare reception of extraneous and adventitious forms, then no reason could be given at all why a mirror or looking-glass should not understand; whereas it cannot so much as sensibly perceive those images which it receives and reflects to us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46288</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's going well, so far we're going steady, driving at a safe speed and things are going pretty much according ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31708]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's going well, so far we're going steady, driving at a safe speed and things are going pretty much according to plan.
