My friend Lynne sent me these words in an email message. I found them moving enough to post here:
~~~
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.
When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.
The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
~~~
Sometimes, simple words can create a prayer.

I talk good
"I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child."
~ Vladimir Nabokov
I'm a great thinker, a good writer, and a bad talker. I think faster than I can talk about certain things, ideas about which I'm passionate. I can think and then re-think it and modify what I think until it's right to me on words written. I can edit what I write, but how can I change what I blurt? I can flirt on my feet. Flirting is nothing of substance. If someone asks me a serious question though, I like to think about my answer before speaking. Maybe because as the youngest of 4 kids, I had the opportunity to think before I had a chance to speak out. I wonder if Vladimir is the youngest in his family?

Watchoo talkin' 'bout, Willis?
The power of the word is real whether or not you are conscious of it.
Your own words are the bricks and mortar of the dreams you want to realize.
Behind every word flows energy.
~ Sonia Choquette
It's not a secret. Lots of people believe.
It's feng shui for words. The words with which you surround yourself creates the force around you.
I think that the words of others are the big bad wolf of your little piggy-house. If you use good, solid words to build yourself, then the wolf has to work harder than if you use flammable words of rage, hate, and negativity. The wolf can blow on those and make a bigger fire.
So, remove the wolf from your circle. Let no disturbance in your force.
Be a Jedi-Piggy and build your dream strong.
Obi-Wan says...The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.
Use your words to create your energy.
