Tie a Knot

Anthony Dixon

 

 

    Tie a Knot

When you are at the end of your Rope, tie a Knot.

Life is tough but we are tougher

We will overcome.

When your day is long

And the night, the night is yours alone

When you’re sure you’ve had enough

Of this life, well hang on

Don’t let yourself go

‘Cause everybody cries

Everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong

Now it’s time to sing along

When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)

If you feel like letting go (hold on)

If you think you’ve had too much

Of this life, well hang on

‘Cause everybody hurts

Take comfort in your friends

Everybody hurts

Don’t throw your hand, oh no

Don’t throw your hand

If you feel like you’re alone

No, no, no, you are not alone

If you’re on your own in this life

The days and nights are long

When you think you’ve had too much

Of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes

Everybody cries

Everybody hurts, sometimes

And everybody hurts sometimes

So hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Everybody hurts

Kingman

Anthony Dixon

 

 

 

 

Kingman

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king

A similar (yet much earlier, dating to the 4th or 5th century CE) turn of phrase, and Erasmus’ possible inspiration, appears in the Genesis Rabbah as “בשוק סמייא צווחין לעווירא סגי נהור”, meaning “In the street of the blind, the one-eyed man is called the Guiding Light”.

Are we getting smarter, or just more dependent? “I fear the day when the technology overlaps with our humanity. The world will only have a generation of idiots.” Albert Einstein

I think I’ve said enough

I think I’ve said too much

Everybody hurt.          Sometimes!!!!!

We walk not only by Sight but also by Faith

Not because that I wander means that I am lost

Footsteps

Anthony Dixon

 

 

 

Keeping your Ears close to the Ground you can hear footsteps of Celestial Beings. Walking in thei’r footsteps will make your Soul Soar into the wild Blue yonder – A.D.

Meaning – If you keep or have your ear to the ground, you make sure that you find out about the things that people are doing or saying.

Robert Louis Stephenson Quotes

‘There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it behooves us all not to talk about the rest of us’ (variant: ‘… that it hardly becomes any of us to talk about the rest of us’).

‘How to Be Happy’

1. Make up your mind to be happy. Learn to find pleasure in simple things.

2. Make the best of your circumstances. No one has everything, and everyone has something of sorrow intermingled with gladness of life. The trick is to make the laughter outweigh the tears.

3. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Don’t think that somehow you should be protected from misfortune that befalls other people.

4. You can’t please everybody. Don’t let criticism worry you.

5. Don’t let your neighbor set your standards. Be yourself.

6. Do the things you enjoy doing but stay outof debt.

7. Never borrow trouble. Imaginary things are harder to bear than real ones.

8. Since hate poisons the soul, do not cherish jealousy, enmity, grudges. Avoid people who make you unhappy.

9. Have many interests. If you can’t travel, read about new places.

10. Don’t hold post-mortems. Don’t spend your time brooding over sorrows or mistakes. Don’t be one who never gets over things.

11. Do what you can for those less fortunate than yourself.

Jesus the Beggar

12. Keep busy at something. A busy person never has time to be unhappy.’
