This can happen, but if it does not, it is not a sign that the meditation period has been useless. Not only at the beginning, but repeatedly, there will be times when we feel a great spiritual dryness and apathy, an aversion, even an inability to meditate. We dare not be balked by such experiences. Above all, we must not allow them to keep us from adhering to our meditation period with great patience and fidelity.  It is, therefore, not good for us to take too seriously the many untoward experiences we have with ourselves in meditation. It is here that our old vanity and our illicit claims upon God may creep in by a pious detour, as if it were our right to have nothing but elevating and fruitful experiences, and as if the discovery of our own inner poverty were quite beneath our dignity. With that attitude, we shall make no progress.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a correlation between top-scoring laws and the quality of the charter environment in that state. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37536]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a correlation between top-scoring laws and the quality of the charter environment in that state.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I haven't gone to college yet and I intend to in a few years. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41256]]></link><description><![CDATA[I haven't gone to college yet and I intend to in a few years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41256</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65454]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19944]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19944</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the 1960s and 1970s, the mine had already played out and several companies used it as a place to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40431]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the 1960s and 1970s, the mine had already played out and several companies used it as a place to put hazardous waste materials.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With government funding being cut back, charities are being hard-pressed to turn away money that's legal.
