QUOTE OF THE MONTH

A deep reflection upon the urgency of the times and a sympathetic recognition of the unhappy plight of humanity are much needed by many disciples and aspirants in the world today, particularly by those who are not close to the world situation but who are looking at it from a distance. It is so simple to give a facile expression of sympathy but at the same time to avoid too great an expenditure of energy in service and too intense an effort to be of assistance.

The hallmark of the pledged disciple and a quality which should increasingly dominate his life is the capacity to identify himself with the part or with the whole—as seems needed at any particular time. Such an attitude involves a comprehensive sweep of love, and this leads to inclusiveness and to the pledging of the life service to the greatest number and to the most needy. If I were asked to specify the outstanding fault of the majority of groups of disciples at this time, I would say that it is the expression of the wrong kind of indifference, leading to an almost immovable preoccupation with their personal ideas and undertakings. These militate against the group integration and tend to block the work.

One of the things most needed by every disciple is to apply the teaching given to the idea of promoting and increasing their world service, thus rendering practical and effective in their environment the knowledge that has been imparted and the stimulation to which they have been subjected. This is a suggestion to which I would have you pay real attention.

(Discipleship in the New Age Vol. I, pp. 82-83)

Well, this is the most often used Cronin family quote: “We know what a problem

is and this ain’t itâ€.

It’s original to us. But, it helps us keep perspective. Those of us whose kids

have such huge challenges are all over not being concerned about the little

things that drive other families crazy.

I inherited sarcasm & I love the sarcastic tshirts. How about this one.

" Got caught staring...Look what it did to me "

" Thanks for staring... but do u want my autograph? "
