"Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and wrong because sometime in your life you will have been all of these."

such a sweet sentiment..it reminds me of something my philosophy teacher said the other day, that there is a teaching that says everyone has been everyone elses mother in some previous lifetime, and we should love each other accordingly. I love that.
Blessing all the birds that died so I could live

It didn't matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls,
but only that we had loved them and that they hadn't heard us calling,
still do not hear us calling them from out of those rooms where they went to be alone for all time,
and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together.

Happiness is like a Butterfly: The more you pursue it, the more it will elude you. But if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder...
