Here are today’s words of Wisdom, one of the reasons why I came back to post is quite plainly sketched in this quote. It is quite true, as the Words of Wisdom so often are:
“The absent are like children, helpless to defend themselves.”
Charles Reade

Dear all,
another set of words of wisdom today. I read them this morning and found they might be the red-line leading us through our lives…or at least in a live of peace…. Maybe you want to think about it yourself because you find I’m just babbling nonsense, which might by the by very well be so.
So here you go, today’s Words of Wisdom:
“There is no way to peace; peace is the way.”
A. J. Muste
Go safely, as always, and have a gorgeous day!
hugs,
Lysanne

Oh Dear,
another weekend during which we abandonned and neglected you. I am so sorry. There is a reason though, not that it gave us the right to, but just so you can maybe understand. The Universities just started their classes again, and as a fresher you are being dazzled and numbed with so many information; new classes, new classmates, you are being shown the place over a 100 times and being told the same story even more than just a couple of 100 times. Then there is the fact that maybe the Uni is far away from home and you need to move out (as is my problem). You have your own little room now far away from home, suddenly need to arrange a lot more than just your breakfast, lunch and keeping your toom tidy. All this comes running straight to you and hits you with full force.
So please believe me when I say I am sorry and will try to do better and really be here daily.
As I have neglected your hunger for wisdom ( 
) there are two sets of words here tonight.
The first one is, in my eyes, a very gentle and caring one. Help others whenever you can, or let them help themselves with what you know. Isn’t that a nice thing to try to do?
“If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.”
Margaret Fuller
The second one is a little review on ourselves. And if you are truly honest, don’t you think it is true?
“Our envy of others devours us most of all.”
Alexander Solzhenitsyn
I think I have babbled on enough for too, and considering I’m a busy little bee lately I suppose I do justice to the name of the blog 
Have a great morning/afternoon/night wherever you are.
Go safely,
Lysanne

Here is today’s set of words. I read them this morning and found they were so very true. I have been on summerbreak for almost 3 months now and I’m am feeling so very bored by all the reading I have been doing. So when I read today’s words of wisdom I decided I could bake a bread, and believe it or not, I feel so much better now! The thingie is to be put in the oven in about 10 minutes and so all I have been doing is making the dough and I feel so much happier already than I felt this morning when I was bored stiff!!
“The happy people are those who are producing something; the bored people are those who are consuming much and producing nothing.”
William Ralph Inge
I hope your day will be splendid, whether you are bored or not
Go safely,

Good afternoon everybody,
another set of words of wisdom for today.
I know it might seem a bit strange, but smiling, as today’s words say, can really lift up your own heart, as well as the hearts of people around you. Smile and people will smile back, you’ll see that you’ll feel so much better!
“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”
Thich Nhat Hanh

Go safely and remember: Smiles are free!

Another set of powerful words of wisdom today.
Pay close attention to them, they’ll make a lot of sense…I know they did to me.
“Dreams come a size too big so that we can grow into them.”
