Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go.

The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Innovation is the central issue in economic prosperity ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20981]]></link><description><![CDATA[Innovation is the central issue in economic prosperity]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63930]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Grant to us, O Lord, to know that which is worth knowing, to love that which is worth loving, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Grant to us, O Lord, to know that which is worth knowing, to love that which is worth loving, to praise that which pleaseth Thee most, to esteem that which is most precious unto Thee, and to dislike whatsoever is evil in Thins eyes.
