Wisdom of Kahlil Gibran~Timeless

The following are a few of my favorite thoughts from Spiritual Sayings of Kahlil Gibran; (His Life span 1883-1931)

"Souls are fires whose ashes are the bodies."

~ "The butterfly will continue to hover over th field and the dewdrops will still glitter upon the grass when the pyramids of Egypt are levelled and the skyscrapers of New York are no more."

~ "The chemist who can extract from his heart's elements compassion, respect, longing, patience, regret, surprise, and forgiveness and compound them into one can create that atom which is called LOVE."

Oh Yes,
I love Gibran too..
"Love one another, but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls."
from The prophet, 'On Marriage'
