  1. It Is Foolish To Wish For Beauty ...

    I found this quote in my files tonight, thought I'd share it
    It is foolish to wish for beauty. Sensible people never either desire it for themselves or care about it in others. If the mind be but well cultivated, and the heart well disposed, no one ever cares for the exterior. So said the teachers of our childhood; and so say we to the children of the present day. All very judicious and proper, no doubt; but are such assertions supported by actual experience?

  2. Love's Trinity by Alfred Austin



    Soul, heart, and body, we thus singly name,
    Are not in love divisible and distinct,
    But each with each inseparably link'd.
    One is not honour, and the other shame,

    And guard the body. Love doth give the whole;
    Its range being high as heaven, as ocean deep,
    Wide as the realms

  4. Never can say Goodbye.

    My friends mother passed away last night.

    Akram and I have been friends since we were 14. We weren't best friends, more like classmates that kept together. We even chose the same major after highschool and continued our friendship in college.

    About 8 months ago, there was a hit and run and her mother was hurt badly in the legs. It wasn't anything serious, she was in pain but the doctors said it was because of the shock, they couldn't find anything that would indicate ...

  5. Trying to study.... and failing.

    Is reading poetry instead of doing homework ( due on Sunday) of process control analysis considered failing in studying?

    Anyway, here's the poem...

    The Clod and the Pebble
    by William Blake (1757-1827)

    Love seeketh not Itself to please,
    Nor for itself hath any care;
    But for another gives its ease,
    And builds a Heaven in Hells despair.

    So sang a little Clod of Clay,
    Trodden with the cattle's feet;
