quotes: He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; Questions?
- 05/30/18 10:18 AM
"He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question remains a fool forever."– Chinese Proverb What does that mean? This, like most ancient proverbs, was difficult to source, but quite interesting to contemplate. In this case, we have all been there, right? You have a question, but you’re afraid to ask it. You don’t want to look foolish, stupid, or inattentive in front of your peers. You say nothing, and have not asked, you never learn what you need to know. Yes, you might get some grief for asking the question, but that sting soon wears … (4 comments)
quotes: What you seek - is seeking you. - Rumi
- 05/29/18 04:40 PM
A desire is something that feels bubbly and exciting when you think about it. ... As much as we can, we want to keep ourselves in that sweet space of desire because when we start to feel the vibrational quality of our desire, we start to call it into our lives. Rumi says it best:
"What you seek is seeking you."
This quote by Rumi reminds me of The Law of Attraction - In the New Thought philosophy, the Law of Attraction is the belief that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts people can bring positive or negative experiences into their life.
In any business and the real estate business … (5 comments)
The wise men realize that thoughts that help others through being said are the only thoughts that should generally be shared. Be they funny or intelligent thoughts. Incomplete thoughts, and those that do nothing but try to inflate your own ego have no place in the wise man's mouth. Leave those to the fools, and let only wonder be uttered from your lips. Be wise. Speak less; speak better. Falsely yours, Plato … (4 comments)

- 11/15/15 10:40 AM
“The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. stone crumbles. wood rots. people, well, they die. but things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on.”
