Absolutely awesome. I voted it up. These are beautiful reminders of our own potential. There are many here that catch my eye; some I've never read before; and one that is an old favorite of mine: Emerson's in the fourth set of ten: "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." I remember first reading this in High School and it has stayed with me ever since.

This is one I recently wrote for my 'Valentine' hub: "When I stand at Heaven's gate and I am asked by God, "what have you done?" I will answer, "I havwe loved another with my whole heart, regardless of the outcome."

Have a blessed day, Taleb80. :)

http://www.bartleby.com/198/1.html is T.S.Eliot's "Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock" poem.

Shelley's "Ozymandias" is another good poem here

http://holyjoe.org/poetry/shelley.htm.

Both are first link on google when you type in name of poem if that is handier for you.

Can you recommend any good poems/literature to me?

Taleb80 Hub Author 4 months ago

Kate

Thank you for the links.

Actually, I am not a good reader for poems & literature.

I will read this poem as you suggested.

I read self religious, development, management, accounting books.. etc.

Rarely, I read novels.

I will read the poem soon & give my feedback.

Thanks again.

I'm always happy to read inspirational quotes. Many of my favorite quotes are from Dr Wayne Dyer and I see you have some here. Thank you for sharing. It is always good for me when I get to receive positive messages throughout my day. You've helped me do that this afternoon and I appreciate that.
