received

a hundred times every day
i remind myself that my inner and outer life
depend on the labours of other humans, living and dead,
and that i must exert myself in order to give
in the same measure as i have received

lamps

we see but dimly through the mists and vapors
amid these earthly damps
what seem to us but sad, funeral tapers
may be heaven's distant lamps

secrets

beauty secrets

for attractive lips,  speak words of kindness.

for lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

for a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

for beautiful hair, let a child run her fingers through it once a day.

for poise, walk with the knowledge you never walk alone.

we leave you a tradition of the future.

the tender loving care of human beings will never become obsolete.

people, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed,
redeemed and redeemed and redeemed. never throw anyone away.

remember, if you ever need a helping hand you'll find one at the end of your
arm.

as you grow older, you'll discover that you have two hands: one for helping
yourself, the second for helping others.

you've great days still ahead of you.

may there be many of them.

     audrey hepburn

itself

wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes
too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and
too selfful to seek other than itself
