When we are angry or depressed in our creativity, we have misplaced our power. We have allowed someone else to determine our worth, and then we are angry at being undervalued.

I don't believe in intuition. When you get sudden flashes of perception, it is just the brain working faster than usual. But you've been getting ready to know it for a long time, and when it comes, you feel you've known it always.

I dont think anyone can DO anything that would make him worthy of love. Love is a gift and cannot be earned. It can only be given.

Well, a man was driving down a country road, and
he decided to get out
and get some fresh air.
He got out,
and started walking in a meadow. As he walked, he came upon
a hole.
Wanting to see how deep it was, he threw a pebble down. No
sound.
So he threw a medium-sized rock down. No sound.
The man started
to get frustrated, so he threw a boulder down. No
sound. As he
searched about, he spotted a railroad beam. He hauled it over
to the
hole, and shoved it in. No sound.
He sat down on the ground,
exhausted. Suddenly, he saw a goat running
at him, full speed. He
leaped up, and it brushed past him, and fell in
the hole. He listened,
but there was no sound.
He sat down again. A few minutes later,
a farmer came walking up. The
man asked him, "How deep is this
hole?" The farmer said, "Oh. Thats
the bottomless pit. It never ends.
Say, have you seen my prize goat?"
The man, not wanting to g
et the blame, said, "No." The farmer said,
"Oh well. He can't get
far. He was tied to a railroad beam."

Two men were digging a ditch on a very
hot
day. One said to the other, "Why are we down in this hole
digging a
ditch when our boss is standing up there in the shade of a
tree?" "I
don't know," responded the other. "I'll ask him."
So
he climbed out of the hole and went to his boss. "Why are we
digging in the hot sun and you're standing in the shade?" "Intelligence,"
the boss said. "What do you mean, intelligence'?"
The boss
said, "Well, I'll show you. I'll put my hand on this tree
and I
want you to hit it with your fist as hard as you can." The ditch
digger took a mighty swing and tried to hit the boss' hand. The boss
removed his hand and the ditch digger hit the tree. The boss said,
"That's intelligence!"
The ditch digger went back to his hole.
His friend asked, "What did he
say?" "He said we are down here
because of intelligence." "What's
intelligence?" said the friend. T
he ditch digger put his hand on his
face and said, "Take your
shovel and hit my hand."
