Thoughts to believe in.
May. 13th, 2005 01:16 pmFrom Babylon 5: this is my mantra:
"Yes, we've disagreed, even fought, but I would rather have someone who opposes me out of an honest belief in the rightness of his cause than someone who is always on my side because it was expected and required." - Delenn, "Rumors, Bargains and Lies"
And...
when I was on vigil for my laurel, the most important tool anyone gave me was this: Mistress Pagan said: "Just say thank you." I discovered that no matter how much I felt embarrassed by something, or even if it hurt, or it was good-- Just 'thank you' was sometimes all that was necessary.
