The past several days have been sunny in Seattle. Today and for the next couple of days there will be a series of Spring storms coming through. Today there was a spurt of wind which caught moi. Today’s deposit into the ‘Joy Jar’ is the wind.
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
William Arthur Ward
Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
John Ruskin
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
Bruce Lee
When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
Henry Ford
If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church is often labeled today as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and swept along by every wind of teaching, look like the only attitude acceptable to today’s standards.
Pope Benedict XVI
The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction.
Chanakya
I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.
Jimmy Dean
