Dance And Be Free :)


Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music.

Create joy for others, and know true joy yourself :)


“It's not enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something. May I suggest that it be creating joy for others, sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely.”

—Dr. Leo Buscaglia (1924-1998); author, professor of special education

Saint Francis of Assisi - on kindness, joy

Joy is the greatest cleanser, and it is the greatest testimony to our faith.

"Toil with happiness," my Lord once said to me...

"A kind face is a
precious
gift."

~ Saint Francis of Assisi ~

Mother Teresa - Joy

JOY IS PRAYER. JOY IS STRENGTH. JOY IS LOVE - JOY IS THE NET OF LOVE BY WHICH WE CAN CATCH SOULS. WE GIVE MOST WHEN WE GIVE WITH JOY. THE BEST WAY TO SHOW OUR GRATITUDE TO GOD AND TO EACH OTHER IS TO ACCEPT EVERYTHING WITH JOY. A JOYFUL HEART IS THE INEVITABLE RESULT OF A HEART BURNING WITH LOVE. WE ALL LONG FOR HEAVEN WHERE GOD IS, BUT WE HAVE IT IN OUR POWER TO BE IN HEAVEN WITH HIM RIGHT NOW - TO BE HAPPY WITH HIM AT THIS VERY MOMENT. BUT BEING HAPPY WITH HIM NOW MEANS:

LOVING AS HE LOVES,
HELPING AS HE HELPS,
GIVING AS HE GIVES,
SERVING AS HE SERVES,
RESCUING AS HE RESCUES,
BEING WITH HIM FOR ALL THE 24 HOURS, AND
TOUCHING HIM IN HIS DISTRESSING DISGUISE OF THE POOR.

-MOTHER TERESA, FROM Mother Teresa's Lessons of Love and Secrets of Sanctity
