People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46043</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59610]]></link><description><![CDATA[And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You must learn from the mistakes of others.

A Goat, passing by, nibbled its young tendrils and its leaves. The Vine addressed him and said: Why do you thus injure me without a cause, and crop my leaves? Is there no young grass left? But I shall not have to wait long for my just revenge; for if you now should crop my leaves, and cut me down to my root, I shall provide the wine to pour over you when you are led as a victim to the sacrifice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had a good start after the bats struggled in the first game. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33632]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had a good start after the bats struggled in the first game.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A little learning is a dangerous thing, but a lot of ignorance is just as bad. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/988]]></link><description><![CDATA[A little learning is a dangerous thing, but a lot of ignorance is just as bad.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  When a man has had so much benefit from the gospel, as to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6955]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  When a man has had so much benefit from the gospel, as to know his own misery, his want of a redeemer, who he is, and how is he to be found; there everything seems to be done, both to awaken and direct his prayer, and make it a true praying in and by the Spirit. For when the heart really pants and longs after God, its prayer is a praying, as moved and animated by the Spirit of God; it is the breath or inspiration of God, stirring, moving and opening itself in the heart. For though the early nature, our old man, can oblige or accustom himself to take heavenly words at certain times into his mouth, yet this is a certain truth, that nothing ever did, or can have the least desire or tendency to ascend to heaven, but that which came down from heaven; and therefore nothing in the heart can pray, aspire, and long after God, but the Spirit of God moving and stirring in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6955</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As long as I have fat turtle-doves, a fig of your lettuce, my friend, and you may keep your shell-fish ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13232]]></link><description><![CDATA[As long as I have fat turtle-doves, a fig of your lettuce, my friend, and you may keep your shell-fish to yourself.
