The Beacon in the Sky

The Meditations – Marcus Aurelius
“Mark how fleeting and paltry is the estate of man – yesterday in embryo, tomorrow a mummy or ashes. So for the hairsbreadth of time assigned to thee, live rationally, and part with life cheerfully, as drops the ripe olive, extolling the season that bore it and the tree that matured it.” – Marcus Aurelius […]
Light and Shadow
All the variety, all the charm, all the beauty of life is made up of light and shadow. – Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy
Life
If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present. – Lao Tzu
Joy and Sorrow
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. – Khalil Gibran
Compassion
A bit of fragrance Always clings to the hand That gives you the flower – Chinese proverb
Hourglass
The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it. – Jean Paul

Forever – Stratovarius

I stand alone in the darkness
The winter of my life came so fast
Memories go back to childhood
To days I still recall

Oh how happy I was then
There was no sorrow there was no pain
Walking through the green fields
Sunshine in my eyes

I’m still there everywhere
I’m the dust in the wind
I’m the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I’m the wind in the trees
Will you wait for me forever?
