Seek and ye shall find


I think people find what they are looking for.

It is so easy to find fault with individuals, with ideas, with the world.  I don't know of any great sages in history who had people lining up to hear what was wrong with them.

 It's not the telephone, the television, computers, or texting that keeps people apart.  It's personalities.

There are people I will drive ten or more hours to see -- and love every moment because it brings us closer.
 
I feel good when I am with them, when I think of them; I am glad they just exist.

And then there are the people who always want to tell me what is wrong -- with me, with you, with everyone else.  They make me uncomfortable.

Life is not a popularity contest and even though opposites may attract each other, it would take a saint to attract some people.

I'm not up to saint standards, so I'm not looking for saintly people, but I love the people I find.
