It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.   ... Maltbie D. Babcock August 7, 2000 Commemoration of John Mason Neale, Priest, Poet, 1866   For all the vigour of his polemic, St. Paul does not content himself with the denunciation of error, but finds the best defense against its insidious approaches in a closer adherence to the love of God and faith in Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take up the cross if thou the crown would'st gain. [Lat., Tolle crucem, qui vis auferre coronam.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take up the cross if thou the crown would'st gain. [Lat., Tolle crucem, qui vis auferre coronam.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Coffee is a beverage that puts one to sleep when not drank. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27760]]></link><description><![CDATA[Coffee is a beverage that puts one to sleep when not drank.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We could say that meditation doesn't have a reason or doesn't have a purpose.

In this respect it's unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All change is not growth; all movement is not forward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5574]]></link><description><![CDATA[All change is not growth; all movement is not forward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Question everything.
