Loving Your Enemies
Posted by admin on May 3, 2011
"Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that. ... The chain reaction of evil—hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars—must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation." -Martin Luther King Jr., Strength to Love
"Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles,lest the LORD see it and be displeased, and turn away his anger from him. " –Proverbs 24:17-18
"But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;"–Matthew 5:44
Recreation vs. Re-Creation

"The true purpose of recreation should be not to merely amuse, not
merely to afford pleasure, not merely to kill time, but to increase
fitness, enhance our usefulness, spur achievement. Any form of
recreation that impairs either our physical or mental efficiency does
not recreate. Real recreation quickens aspirations." -- B.C. Forbes
