Maintaining Hope

Mr. Dickie @ Busboys & Poets

Maintaining hope comes from seeing the potential in every situation and staying positive despite circumstances.
(John C. Maxwell, Leadership, 22 August)

Remember that men will go on doing the same things even if you should burst in protest.
(Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Chapter VIII, 4)

Vision Of Hope

Yesterday is but a dream, tomorrow is but a vision.
But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and
every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore to this day.
(Sanskrit Proverb in The Color Of Light by Perry Tilleraas, 13 November)

Whatever happens, do not lose hold of the two main ropes of life --
hope and faith.

Human History

It is from numberless diverse acts of 

courage and belief 

that human history is shaped.

Each time a man stands up for an ideal, 

or acts to improve the lot of others, 

or strikes out against injustice, 

he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope.

(Robert F. Kennedy, in The Little Book Of Virtues, June 14)

Some people don't know how badly they need a new way of life until disaster overtakes them.  (One Day At A Time In Al-Anon, 21 November)

People who have no future hope have no motivation for life today.  (Warren W. Wiersbe, Chapter-By-Chapter Bible Commentary, p. 836)

Not everybody who asks for help should receive it.  (Warren W. Wiersbe, Chapter-By-Chapter Bible Commentary, p. 800)

True reconciliation is not cheap; there is a price to pay. (Warren W. Wiersbe, Chapter-By-Chapter Bible Commentary, p. 810)

I learned how to add comments to the thirty-eight videos I selected for my Sampler playlist I created for Mr. Dickie's Channel on YouTube.  There's a link to the Featured video page in the sidebar of this blog page.  You do not need to create a YouTube account to watch the music videos.
