“Until one selects 
one datum, one factor, one particular
in a confusion of particles,
the confusion continues.
The one thing selected and use
becomes the stable datum
for the remainder.”

“When we grow timid
in the face of circumstance
it is because our purpose,
our stable data,
have been invalidated.”

L. Ron Hubbard ~ The Problems of Work

Spring comes with flowers, autumn with the moon, summer with the breeze, winter with snow. When idle concerns don't fill your thoughts, that's your best season.

A child is not a special species of animal distinct from man.
A child is a man or a woman 
who has not attained full growth.

A good, stable adult
with love and tolerance in his heart
is about the best therapy a child can have.

I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to
endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.
