The Best Thing for Being Sad

The Best Thing for Being Sad

“The best thing for being sad," said Merlin, 

     Merlin

"is to learn something.  That's the only thing that never fails.  You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds.  There is only one thing for it then — to learn.  Learn why the world wags and what wags it.  That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting.  Learning is the only thing for you.  Look what a lot of things there are to learn.”

This passage is found in the book 'The Once and Future King'.

Please, Strive for Peace

Please, Strive for Peace


From the bombarded city of Homs in Syria, 'a peace sign' from a beautiful little girl.  The leaders of Syria and the world, stop the violence and war, 'Please, strive for Peace'. 

Thank you,
