And unexpressed feelings comeforth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are thereincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment anddisillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality.

If a female friend lets on that she is going out with another man, be kind and understanding. If she says she would like to go out with the Dallas Cowboys, including the coaching staff, the same rule applies. Tell her: "Kath, you just go right ahead and do what you feel is right." Unless you actually care for her, in which case you must see to it that she has no male contact whatsoever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The apprehension of approaching evil has hurried many into the utmost danger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50593]]></link><description><![CDATA[The apprehension of approaching evil has hurried many into the utmost danger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Congress is so strange.

([Dr. Arthur] Way's translation shows this.) One line in a song that comes in Romans 8 has been a great help to me. Way calls the song a "Hymn of Triumph to Jesus". This is the line: "How can He [the Father] but, in giving Him [Jesus], lavish on us all things -- all?" "Freely give" means to give lavishly. What do I need today? Strength? Peace? Patience? Heavenly joy? Industry? Good temper? Power to help others? Inward contentment? Courage? Whatever it be, my God will lavish it upon me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Awake, thou wintry earth-- Fling off thy sadness!  Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth   Your ancient gladness!  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13139]]></link><description><![CDATA[Awake, thou wintry earth-- Fling off thy sadness!  Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth   Your ancient gladness!    Christ is risen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Owl and the Pussy-Cat went to sea In a beautiful pea-green boat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4400]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Owl and the Pussy-Cat went to sea In a beautiful pea-green boat.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One horse-laugh is worth ten thousand syllogisms.
