Doc Childre, The How To Book of Teen Self Discovery When I start appreciating, I look at it like business. I start by appreciating life itself. After all, life is really a gift. It might not always seem like that's true, but it is. If nothing else, it's a gift of discovery. So I appreciate that! Doc Childre and Sara Paddision, HeartMath Discovery Program What you put out comes back. The more you sincerely appreciate life from the heart, the more the magnetic energy of appreciation attracts fulfilling life experiences to you, both personally and professionally. Learning how to appreciate more consistently offers many benefits and applications. Appreciation is an easy heart frequency to activate and it can help shift your perspectives quickly. Learning how to appreciate both pleasant and even seemingly unpleasant experiences is a key to increased fulfillment. Mother Teresa -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is dangerous.

If Abraham's migration can no longer be explained as part of a larger Amorite migratory stream from east to west, it should be noted that what has fallen by the wayside is a scholarly hypothesis, not the Biblical text. Genesis itself presents the movement from Haran to Canaan as an individual, unique act undertaken in response to a divine call -- an event, not an incident -- that inaugurates a new and decisive stage in God's plan of history. The factuality or otherwise of this Biblical evaluation lies beyond the scope of scholarly research.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6735</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If we could know which of us, darling, would be the first to go, who would be first to breast ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4157]]></link><description><![CDATA[If we could know which of us, darling, would be the first to go, who would be first to breast the swelling tide and step alone upon the other side -- if we could know!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4157</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Human nature is so well disposed towards those who are in interesting situations, that a young person, who either marries ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37232]]></link><description><![CDATA[Human nature is so well disposed towards those who are in interesting situations, that a young person, who either marries or dies, is sure of being kindly spoken of.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do have aircraft in that area making drops, but with the coming of nightfall, we'll have to ground those ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32334]]></link><description><![CDATA[We do have aircraft in that area making drops, but with the coming of nightfall, we'll have to ground those shortly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ingratitude! thou marble-hearted fiend, More hideous when thou show'st thee in a child  Than the sea-monster. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ingratitude! thou marble-hearted fiend, More hideous when thou show'st thee in a child  Than the sea-monster.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is always good When a man has two irons in the fire. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51954]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is always good When a man has two irons in the fire.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each morning we are born again.
