A Quote was sent by Harvey Kuperman, referring to Carl Yung
"Bidden or not bidden,G-D is present"
In looking it up found the following about it
Actual Statement:
Vocatus atque non vocatus, Deus aderit.
Called or uncalled, God is present.
This is a statement that Jung discovered among the Latin writings of " Desiderius Erasmus" who declared the statement had been an ancient Spartan proverb. Jung popularized it, having it inscribed over the doorway of his house, and upon his tomb.
Later variations on the statement which became adapted are:
Summoned or not summoned, God is present.Invoked or not invoked, God is present
Called or not called, the god will be there.
Bidden or unbidden, God is present.
Bidden or not bidden, God is present.
Bidden or not, God is present.Bidden or not bidden, God is there.
Called or uncalled, God is there.

"The future has a way of arriving unannounced."

The best way to keep it from slipping up on you is to remain in the
present moment. This way, not only do you get to invite the future
in, you set the standard by which it will behave when it gets here

Family quarrels have a total bitterness unmatched by others.  Yet it sometimes happens that they also have a kind of tang, a pleasantness beneath the unpleasantness, based on the tacit understanding that this is not for keeps; that any limb you climb out on will still be there later for you to climb back.  ~Mignon McLaughlin
Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material
F. Scott Fitzgerald

I loved strawberry jam
And the dark sweetness of a woman's body.
Also well-chilled vodka, herring in olive oil,
Scents, of cinnamon, of cloves.
So what kind of prophet am I?  Many others
Were justly called, and trustworthy.
Who would have trusted me? For they saw
How I empty glasses, throw myself on food,
And glance greedily at the waitress's neck.
Flawed and aware of it. Desiring greatness,
Able to recognize greatness wherever it is,
And yet not quite, only in part, clairvoyant,
I knew what was left for smaller men like me:
A feast of brief hopes, a rally of the proud,
A tournament of hunchbacks, literature. Czeslaw Milosz (1911-2004) Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature 1980

A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him. Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it. They all tried, but in vain. Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one. This they did with the greatest ease. Then said the father, "Thus, my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone."

I love to hear a choir. I love the humanity... to see the faces of real people devoting themselves to a piece of music. I like the teamwork. It makes me feel optimistic about the human race when I see them cooperating like that.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

It all comes down to one very simple choice ... Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'.  -- Andy Dufrain (Tim Robbins) in "The Shawshank Redemption

"But what is the good of friendship if one cannot say exactly what one means? Anybody can say charming things and try to please and to flatter, but a true friend always says unpleasant things, and does not mind giving pain. Indeed, if he is a really true friend he prefers it, for he knows that then he is going good

A Warrior's Creed
14th Century Samuri: The Book of Runes by Ralph Blum
I have no parents: I make the heavens and earth my parents

I have no home: I make awareness my home

I have no means: I make understanding my means.

I have no principles: I make adaptability to all circumstances my principles

I have no friends: I make my mind my friend

I have no enemy: I make carelessness my enemy

I have no armor: I make benevolence and righteousness my armor.

I have no castle: I make immovable mind my castle

I have no sword: I make absence of self my sword

I have no life or death: I make the tides of breathing my life and death

The best portion of a good man's life is in his little nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." - Aristotle
"A life without purpose is a languid, drifting thing; Every day we ought to review our purpose, saying to ourselves: This day let me make a sound beginning, for what we have hitherto done is naught! "
