This is the more abundant life which, in its own particular language and own particular way, it calls us to live. Because it is our part in the one life in the whole universe of spirits, our share in the great drive towards Reality, the tendency of all life to seek God Who made it for Himself and now incites and guides it, we are already adapted to it. Just as a fish is adapted to life in the sea. This view of our situation fills us with a certain awed and humble gladness. It delivers us from all niggling fuss about ourselves, prevents us from feeling self-important about our own little spiritual adventures; and yet makes them worth while as part of one great spiritual adventure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Global Services division goes from strength to strength, providing BT with diversification away from pure telecoms services that remain ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31603]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Global Services division goes from strength to strength, providing BT with diversification away from pure telecoms services that remain under intense pricing pressure.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who holds the ladder is as bad as the thief ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59068]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who holds the ladder is as bad as the thief]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have to pay money, you haven't won a thing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37086]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have to pay money, you haven't won a thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37086</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On Blur bassist Alex James: I used to punch Alex a lot.
