What is life? It is a flash of a firefly in the night. It is a breath of a buffalo in the winter time. It is as the little shadow that runs across the grass and loses itself in the the sunset.-Crowfoot, Blackfeet *********************************************************** We have bigger houses but smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts but more problems; more medicines, but less healthiness. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies then even, but have less communication. We have become long on quantity, but short on quality. These are times of fast foods but slow digestion; tall man but short character; steep profits but shallow relationships. It's a time when there is much in window, but nothing in the room. -His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama******************************************************** * It is our belief that the love of possessions is a weakness to be overcome. Its appeal is to the material part, and if allowed its way it will in time disturb the spiritual balance of the man.-Ohiyesa (Wahpeton Dakota)
