Notable Quotes:

"To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right."

- Confucius

"At the deepest level, it's real love and care that people crave. Give those things, and you'll receive them. Through your caring deeds and actions, you'll truly make your mark on the world."

- Doc Childre & Howard Martin, Authors

~♥~

"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin..... But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid.Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."

- Alfred Souza

~♥~

"Vision is not enough. It must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps, we must step up the stairs."

- Vaclav Havel

~♥~

"Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgement will be surer; since to remain constantly at work will cause you to lose your power of judgement. Go some distance away because the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a glance, and a lack of harmony or proportion is more readily seen."

- Leonardo Da Vinci

~♥~

"He who cannot forgive others destroys the bridge over which he himself must pass."

- George Herbert

~♥~

"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."

- Albert Einstein

~♥~

"When I let go of what I think I am, I become what I truly might be."

- Lao Tzu

~♥~

"It is not how much you do, but how much Love you put into the doing that matters."

- Mother Teresa

~♥~

"The first rule is to keep an untroubled spirit. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are."

- Marcus Aurelius
Roman Emperor

~♥~

"We cannot tell what may happen to us in the strange medley of life. But we can decide what happens in us ÷ how we can take it, what we do with it ÷ and that is what really counts in the end. How to take the raw stuff of life and make it a thing of worth and beauty ÷ that is the test of living."

- Joseph Fort Newton

...TCA Links...

We hope you will find these links useful. Any links displayed on this site have been carefully selected. We do, however, warmly welcome suggestions from you, our visitors, for any sites that you think are useful to caregivers, and that you feel should be included here on TCA Online.

Also, all sites are personally reviewed before inclusion, and in most cases, I have had direct interactions with the publishers (or their representatives) of most of the caregiving-related sites featured here, and can attest to their professionalism in the field, as well to as their dedication to caregivers.

Please email Valerie with your suggestions, and be sure to put "TCA Links" in the subject line.
