A
few notes
about our quotations: First of all, we don't
count them. We honestly don't care how many there
are. All it takes is for one important idea to take root
in our consciousness for us to learn, to grow, and to change,
and what's important to us is that we present a broad array of
thoughts and ideas--but knowing just how many there are can do
nothing to improve the experience of a visitor to the site.
That said, our second note is that we don't
necessarily agree with everything that you'll find on this
site. We do recognize, though, that every single person on
this planet is in a unique place in his or her journey, and will
need to hear and learn different things. If this site is
to be useful to a broad spectrum of people, then, it's important
to present thoughts and ideas that may help people in various
stages of growth. Besides, the fact that we don't agree
with something today doesn't necessarily mean that we won't
agree with it tomorrow.
Third, as mentioned on our main page, none of the
ideas here are presented as rules or absolute laws. They
are presented as ideas, and you may take from them what you
will.
Finally, a note about the layout. The quotes
aren't separated and presented in separate fonts for the sake of
decoration. We use different fonts and colors for a very
specific reason: to isolate each thought so that it can be
considered on its own, so that it can have its own personality
and be taken by its own measure. Many sites offer
quotations in long lists using the same font, the same font
size, and the same color. This is fine. But we often
find that when the words are presented in that way, thoughts
from different people tend to become too similar to each other,
running into each other and losing their identity. Our
attempt to present each thought as unique in font and layout is
simply an attempt to help the reader to keep each thought
separate in his or her mind. We know that it helps us to
see them this way, and we hope that it helps others.
We are continually adding new ideas and new
thoughts. The site that you visit today is not the same
site that was here one year ago, or one month ago. If you
return in two months, it will be different once more. You
may not see or recognize all of the changes, depending on which
pages you visit, but changes are being made almost every single
day that passes, and we sincerely hope that these changes are
for the better, to provide a broader range of ideas that can
help us all to grow and mature as we make our ways through life.
You will find some repeats. Sometimes that's
because a particular quotation fits on more than one
page--perhaps change and letting go, or abundance and
thoughts. Sometimes you'll find a duplicate on pages of
the same topic, or even on the same page--those are simply
mistakes. We try not to do those and we take them down
when we catch them, but sometimes we simply miss the fact that
this quotation that we're putting on the fifth page of life
quotations is also on the second page. It would take far
too long to check every possible page when we're putting a new
quotation on the site; we want to keep expanding its usefulness
and relevance, and a duplicate quotation now and then seems to
be a small price to pay for the ability to expand regularly.
Finally, we sincerely thank you for your
visit. You are the reason this site exists, and we hope
and pray that it will be useful for you. We sincerely
believe that the people whose words are here wrote or spoke
those words in order to be helpful to others, and we pass them
along in that spirit. So thank you for your visit, and
thank you for being you!
