We had this topic previously but for some reason it is locked. It was originally started December 17, 2007 by Flame/Grey Dragon with this intro:
Post here quotes, short stories, experiences, history incidents, anything that has some message of wisdom in it.
*- If you want to lose you friends, start telling them the truths.
*- If the roof is falling, run away, if the sky is falling, stop where you are.
*- Love can occur without kisses and hugs but it can never occur without tears and agony
It is one of my favorite threads so I am resurrecting this locked topic!
~Only from the heart Can you touch the sky.
~The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.
~Thirst drove me down to the water where I drank the moon's reflection.
~Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.
* All by Jalal-Uddin Rumi

hay carla, what about giving me a word of wisdom to me?  When I get back from the vet with a clear negative on the cat's blood test, then ask me for advice. Until then I am in no fit shape for human consumption,.

You should be kissed and often And by someone who knows how. Rhett Butler, Gone With the Wind When you kiss me Without uttering a single word You speak to my soul. Unknown
The soul that can speak through the eyes Can also kiss with a gaze. Gustavo Adolfo Becquer
"Where should one use perfume?" a young woman asked. "Wherever one wants to be kissed," I said. Coco Chanel

There is no bigger honor to me than to be betrayed in love.
Women cry and people see the tears, men cry and nobody sees the tears. Men's tears don't emerge from the eye, but the soul.
What is it that fills the universe? What is it that you see all around yourself? Nothing, but the illusion of existence.
