But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will. -Grenville Kleiser.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44704</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Very hot and still the air was, Very smooth the gliding river,  Motionless the sleeping shadows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Very hot and still the air was, Very smooth the gliding river,  Motionless the sleeping shadows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thing about this group is, when you look at them individually, there is no 'stunning' talent.
