You can find positive signs or you can find negative signs. How you evaluate them depends on something that happened in your life recently or something like that. There's no objective way to do it. The important thing is you try to commit yourself to making the positive signs more real. Suppose you felt that there's 99 percent of a probability that human civilization is going to be destroyed in the next hundred years, but one percent chance it won't be, and that one percent offers some opportunities to do something. Well, you commit yourself to that one percent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So on he fares, and to the border comes, Of Eden, where delicious Paradise,  Now nearer, crowns with her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45470]]></link><description><![CDATA[So on he fares, and to the border comes, Of Eden, where delicious Paradise,  Now nearer, crowns with her enclosure green,   As with a rural mound, the champain head    Of a steep wilderness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rugged trees are mingling Their flowery sprays in love;  The ivy climbs the laurel   To clasp ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23107]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rugged trees are mingling Their flowery sprays in love;  The ivy climbs the laurel   To clasp the boughs above.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People have to minimize the use of home equity for short term financial needs.

When summarized in a few neat words or phrases, these gems of wisdom become substitutes for thought, and gradually take on much of the status of revealed truth. Occasionally, some iconoclast sees fit to challenge one of them, and a brief flurry ensues, after which things go on about as before. It is easy to think of plenty of ideas that are passing, if they have not already passed, beyond the stage of effective discussion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52062</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45927]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45927</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let observation with observant view, Observe mankind from China to Peru. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59619]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let observation with observant view, Observe mankind from China to Peru.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more merit, the less affection ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27376]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more merit, the less affection]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27376</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62718]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Much of the self-righteous nonsense that abounds on so many subjects cannot stand up to three questions: (1) Compared to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24592]]></link><description><![CDATA[Much of the self-righteous nonsense that abounds on so many subjects cannot stand up to three questions: (1) Compared to what?
