From Balthasar's " The Art of Worldly Wisdom "
" Where the one is fickle the other is enduring. The first for life, the second afterwards; the one against envy, the other against oblivion. Fortune is desired, at times assisted: fame is earned. The desire for fame springs from man's best part. It was and is the sister of the giants; it always goes to extremes - - horrible monsters or brilliant prodigies. "
( This is Aphorism #10 Fortune and Fame )

I just recently stumbled upon this gifted, holy, humble visionary, ( I call him ) . . . . his site has an aphorism everyday . . . although some are a little lengthy, some are home runs . . . I highly recommend the site for a quick shot of energy and humbleness first thing in the morning . . a good way to start your day . . . It's really great to be alive !
As Hugh Prather would say: " It's really safe to be happy now. "
( Gee, I'm glad he reminded us ! )
