Footprints In Your Heart

These phrases I found by Eleanor Roosevelt (I believe so anyway...at least that is what the website said) are really interesting to think about....I found many of these truly motivating. 

Footprints In Your Heart

Many people will walk in and out of your life,
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.

Anger is only one letter short of danger.

If someone betrays you once, it is his fault;
If he betrays you twice, it is your fault.

Great minds discuss ideas,
Average minds discuss events,
Small minds discuss people.

He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses much more;
He who loses faith, loses all.

Beautiful young people are accidents of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.

Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

Friends, you and me.
You brought another friend,
And then there were three.

We started our group,
Our circle of friends,
And like that circle -
There is no beginning or end.

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.

That's why it's called the present.*

Creating a Space

So, I have been doing a lot of thinking about this whole media thing and I have come to the realization that perhaps media can create the space where peace can be talked about or discussed.  Peace needs to be invited not forced on someone. If a space can be created that welcomes people and brings people together then perhaps the media has accomplished in putting a face to the people with whom we share our lives with, but might not have encountered before...it is just our part as individuals to step out of our comfort zones and meet people.
