Book Description
The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty: not knowing what comes next” (Ursula K. Le Guin). “Life must be lived forwards, but can only be understood backwards” (Søren Kierkegaard). “When they tell you to grow up, they mean stop growing” (Tom Robbins). If brevity is the soul of wit, it may also be the soul of wisdom, as these short sharp nuggets from Sunbeams suggest. Derived from The Sun, the eminent monthly national literary magazine with a loyal readership of 70,000 people, Sunbeams features a selection of quotations for the aficionado of the form, the fan of the magazine, and anyone looking for an instant reminder of the beauty, power, and sheer complexity of the human spirit. Avoiding the familiar, the book contains pithy thoughts from a diverse group that includes James Baldwin, Mother Teresa, Friedrich Nietzsche, Rumi, and Victor Frankl, who survived the Theresienstadt concentration camp. Provocative and uplifting, the book respects both the glory and the heartache of being human.

Pages : 91
Book Description
The only security I have is to live with God. When I live in His will, His power is with me. The ifs in life can be regulated by the power of faith. I must let go of all the mistakes I've made and bad experiences I have had and become a new person. I want to be a Christian woman and a channel of blessings through which God's words and songs can flow to benefit mankind. The one thing we all want is to love and be loved in return. People are beautiful, each in their own special and unique way. The world is God's beautiful creation. There is wonder and excitement in even simple things. I am willing to accept God's will, even if it is not what I desire, when He makes His will for my life made known to me. With God, I believe all things are possible. I can do very little toward changing other people, but I can control my attitude toward them and improve relationships through prayer and understanding. If I act as if I have the qualities I desire, they will develop in me, for I am now, and I will become, what I think about in my heart. I am God's child. Jesus loved me even before I knew Him. Therefore, I can handle life because in Him, I live and move and have my being.
