Eileen Caddy 1917 – 2006
Concentrate on the wonders and joys of this life, and accept the very best which is your true heritage. It is not being an ostrich, afraid of life and not facing it.

Eileen Caddy 1917 – 2006
Difficulties are opportunities to better things. They are stepping stones to greater experience. Perhaps someday you will be thankful for some failure in a particular direction. When one door closes another one opens… as a natural law it has to balance.
Dwell not on the past, use it to illustrate a point then leave it behind. Nothing really matters except what you do now, in this moment of time. From this moment onward you can be an entirely different person, filled with love and understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every thought and deed.
Eileen Caddy 1917 – 2006

See every difficulty as a challenge, a stepping stone, and never be defeated by anything or anyone.

Thomas Carlyle 1795 – 1881
Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct.
Every day that is born into the world comes like a burst of music and rings the whole day through, and you make of it a dance, a dirge, or a life march, as you will.
Everywhere in life, the true question is not what we gain, but what we do.
Go as far as you can see…
When you get there you’ll be able to see farther.
Thomas Carlyle 1795 – 1881
Not what I have, but what I do, is my kingdom.
Nothing builds self-esteem and self-confidence like accomplishment.
Nothing stops the man who desires to achieve. Every obstacle is simply a course to develop his achievement muscle. It’s a strengthening of his power of accomplishment.
Oh, give us the man who sings at his work.
Nancie J. Carmody
I am thankful for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing – because I have a home. I am thankful for the piles of laundry and ironing – because it means my loved ones are nearby.

Lydia Maria Child 1802 – 1880
I thank my Heavenly Father for every manifestation of human love, I thank Him for all experiences, be they sweet or bitter, which help me to forgive all things, and to enfold the whole world with a blessing.
In politeness, as in many other things connected with the formation of character, people in general begin outside, when they should begin inside; instead of beginning with the heart, and trusting that to form manners, they begin with manners, and trust the heart to chance influences. The golden rule contains the very life and soul of politeness.
