And this often in all sincerity. But, at other times, we are not really much disturbed about it; or, at least, not nearly so much as our heaped-up language would imply. What we imagine that we are achieving through this unreality I do not know. We shall not fool the All-wise; nor induce Him to believe that we are anything other, or better, than we actually are! Were it not saner to tell Him the truth, exactly as it is -- not that we are overwhelmed with sorrow for our sinfulness, if it is not so; but rather this, that, to all our other sinfulness, we have added this last and crowning sinfulness, that we are not much worried about it, or, at least, not nearly as much as we ought to be. Be pleased, in pity, to grant us such measure of sorrow for our failures as will lead us to a true repentance; and, through that, to a new way of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65799]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65799</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business leaders often get credit for the successful decisions that were forced on them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11632]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business leaders often get credit for the successful decisions that were forced on them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your heart's desires be with you! -As You Like It.

And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beside Jesus, the whole lot of us are so contemptible...
