"Music was my first love
and it will be my last.
Music of the future
and music of the past.
To live without my music
would be impossible to do.
In this world of troubles,
my music pulls me through."
~John Miles

ANTIGONE
“Many the wonders but nothing walks stranger than man.
The thing crosses the sea in the winter’s storm,
Making his path through the roaring waves,
And she, the greatest of gods, the Earth —
Ageless she is and unwearied — he wears her away
As the ploughs go up and down from year to year
And his mules turn up the soil.
Gay nations of birds he snares and leads,
Wild beast tribes and the salty brood of the sea
With the twisted mesh of his nets, this clever man.
He controls with his craft the beasts of the open air,
Walkers on hills. The horse with his shaggy mane
He holds and harnesses, yoked about the neck.
And the strong bull of the mountain.
Language, and thought like the wind
And the feelings that make the town
He has taught himself, and shelter against the cold,
Refuge from rain. He can always help himself.
He faces no future helpless. There’s only death
That he cannot find an escape from.”
~Sophocles, Tragedist, playwright, written in 441 BCE

William O. Cushing Quotes
"It was more beautiful than words can tell, and my heart seemed to be there." ~William O. Crushing, 1875
“One day ... I was reaching up for a blessing when suddenly there came down upon my heart a vision of the heavenly country. I seemed to look down upon a river that like a mighty tide rolled beneath me. Across, on the other side of this river, I saw an enchanted land; its hills and valleys were sleeping in a heavenly calm. It was more beautiful than words can tell, and my heart seemed to be there. As I gazed upon the scene, there came to my lips the words, ‘Beautiful valley of Eden.’ The vision remained until I had written down the hymn; then it gradually faded from my sight. But I want to say that the beauty of the hymn is largely due to Mr. Sherwin, who, by his rich melody, has reached a deeper chord than any mere words could ever have reached.” ~William O. Cushing, Author of Beautiful Valley of Eden, 1875

"The best way to create change in your relationship is to begin by changing yourself. It’s so easy to blame your loved one for why your relationship is stuck. Change ultimately begins with looking at oneself. What do you think you need to do differently to create change in your relationship?" ~Dr. Jeff Kane, Relationships Unscripted
"Thoughts that are often never expressed can influence your relationship in ways you never imagined. What you think will greatly influence what you say and how you act. The expectations you carry will affect what how you move through your relationship. Change your thoughts and change your relationship." ~Dr. Jeff Kane
