[Quote No.52436] Need Area: Body > General
"[Poem about the mystery of dying and death:]
'Gone From My Sight'
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.
Then someone at my side says:
‘There, she is gone!’
‘Gone where?’
Gone from my sight. That is all.
She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says, ‘There, she is gone!’ There are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout:
‘Here she comes!’
'And that is dying.'

[Quote No.53548] Need Area: Work > General
"[Poem: about vocation and career - finding and doing the work you are ideally suited for]
'Work'
Let me but do my work from day to day,
In field or forest, at the desk or loom,
In roaring market-place, or tranquil room;
Let me but find it in my heart to say,
When vagrant wishes beckon me astray -
'This is my work; my blessing, not my doom;
Of all who live, I am the one by whom
This work can best be done, in the right way.'
Then shall I see it not too great, nor small,
To suit my spirit and to prove my powers;
Then shall I cheerful greet the laboring hours,
And cheerful turn, when the long shadows fall
At eventide, to play and love and rest,
Because I know for me my work is best.
" - Henry van Dyke

[Quote No.53549] Need Area: Friends > Friends
"[Poem: about friendship and company]
'A Wayfaring Song'
O who will walk a mile with me
Along life's merry way?
A comrade blithe and full of glee,
Who dares to laugh out loud and free,
And let his frolic fancy play,
Like a happy child, through the flowers gay
That fill the field and fringe the way
Where he walks a mile with me.
And who will walk a mile with me
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes to see
The stars shine out o'er the darkening lea,
And the quiet rest at the end o' the day, -
A friend who knows, and dares to say,
The brave, sweet words that cheer the way
Where he walks a mile with me.
With such a comrade, such a friend,
I fain would walk till journeys end,
Through summer sunshine, winter rain,
And then? - Farewell, we shall meet again!
" - Henry van Dyke
