People will come, Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. Turn up your driveway, not even sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door, as innocent as children, longing for the past. 'Of course we won't mind if you look around,' you'll say, 'it's only twenty dollars per person.' They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it, for it is money they have and peace they lack. They'll walk off to the bleachers, sit in their shirt sleeves on a perfect afternoon. [They'll] find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game. It'll be as if they've dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick, they'll have to brush them away from their faces. Unknown

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. The Bible
... And be at peace among yourselves. Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. See that none render evil for evil unto any [man]; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. The Bible
Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. The Bible
I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. The Bible
10 Reasons to Read to Your Child 1. Because when you hold them and give them this attention, they know you love them. 2. Because reading to them will encourage them to become readers. 3.

Brahman is the first cause and last refuge. Brahman, the hidden Self in everyone, Does not shine forth. He is revealed only To those who keep their mind one-pointed On the Lord of Love and thus develop A superconscious manner of knowing. Meditation enables them to go Deeper and deeper into consciousness, From the world of words to the world of thoughts, Then beyond thoughts to wisdom in the Self. Unknown
