"Oh, a hidden power is in my breast,

A power that none can fathom;

I call the tides from seas of rest,

They rise, they fall, at my behest;

And many a tardy fisher’s boat,

I’ve torn apart and set afloat,

From out their raging chasm.

For I’m an enchantress, old and grave;

Concealed I rule the weather;

Oft set I, the lover’s heart a blaze,

With hidden power of my fulgent rays,

Or seek I the souls of dying men,

And call the sea-tides from the fen,

And drift them out together.

I call the rain from the mountain’s peak,

And sound the mighty thunder;

When I wax and wane from week to week,

The heavens stir, while vain men seek,

To solve the myst’ries that I hold,

But a bounded portion I unfold,

So nations pass and wonder.

Yea, my hidden strength no man may know;

Nor myst’ries be expounded;

I’ll cause the tidal waves to flow,

And I shall wane, and larger grow,

Yet while man rack his shallow brain,

The secrets with me still remain,

He seeks in vain, confounded."

Priscilla Jane Thompson

efforts are intense and sincere."

Awareness

“Awareness is the seed of godliness in you.

When it comes to its full growth, you have

come to the fulfillment of your destiny".

Level...

"Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum

on which to place it, and I shall move the

world. "

Archimedes

OMENS....

 

"I went to you, and by my side

Enchanted dreams were curling briskly,

And Moon companion on the right

My running, mettlesome and frisky.

I went away, my heart was left

With you excited and aglow,

And Moon companion on the left

My running despondent and slow.

We poets all are of this kind,

Eternal dreams is our mission,

And omens, signs, and superstition

Agree with our soul and mind."

Alexander Pushkin

Translated by Vladimir Gurvich

One of the greatest writers that has influenced

European literature and culture,

Always aim higher...

“It is never a shame to be at the bottom once in awhile.

You only don't have to remain there forever. Use it as a

stepping stone to aspire higher. Begin small but always

aim higher.”

Bernard Osei Annang

Do not stop...

“It does not matter how slowly

you go as long as you do not stop.”

Confucius
