It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend... when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present -- love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure -- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In traveling I shape myself betimes to idleness  And take fools' pleasure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59614]]></link><description><![CDATA[In traveling I shape myself betimes to idleness  And take fools' pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything is in the hands of God.

We lived at the junction of great trout rivers in western Montana, and our father was a Presbyterian minister and a fly fisherman who tied his own flies and taught others. He told us about Christ's disciples being fishermen, and we were to assume, as my brother and I did, that all first-class fishermen on the Sea of Galilee were fly fishermen and that John, the favorite, was a dry-fly fisherman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O, what men dare do! what men may do! what men daily do, not knowing what they do! -Much Ado ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55448]]></link><description><![CDATA[O, what men dare do! what men may do! what men daily do, not knowing what they do! -Much Ado about Nothing.

For if the attribute "Christian" can be given sense from Eph. 2, then it means reconciled and reconciling, triumphant over walls and removing the debris, showing solidarity with the "enemy" and promoting not one's own peace of mind but "our peace"... When this peace is deprived of its social, national, or economic dimensions, when it is distorted or emasculated so much that only "peace of mind" enjoyed by saintly individuals is left -- then Jesus Christ is being flatly denied. To propose, in the name of Christianity, neutrality or unconcern on questions of international, racial, or economic peace -- this amounts to using Christ's name in vain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A foole knowes more in his house, then a wise man in anothers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49019]]></link><description><![CDATA[A foole knowes more in his house, then a wise man in anothers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Charles Simeon, Pastor, Teacher, 1836   The Church seems to have lost heart somewhat, has allowed the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7548]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Charles Simeon, Pastor, Teacher, 1836   The Church seems to have lost heart somewhat, has allowed the old assurance and enthusiasm to cool below the temperature at which big things get done, is always whimpering and complaining about something, has developed a foolish trick of gathering into corners in discouraged groups and bleating disconsolately that God seems to be strangely little in our day, the very mood that so maddened the Hebrew prophets that they itched to lay violent hands upon their countrymen, and literally shake it out of them. We Church people have become so prone to loud and abusive self-depreciation that the thing amounts to a disease... and though these doleful spirits are not altogether serious, the world is listening, and takes us, not unnaturally, at our own dismal and unflattering valuation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48631]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man is not a wall, whose stones are crushed upon the road; or a pipe, whose fragments are thrown ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22885]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man is not a wall, whose stones are crushed upon the road; or a pipe, whose fragments are thrown away at a street corner.
