More From Dan Quisenberry

I have seen war. i have seen war on land and sea. i have seen blood running from the wounded. i have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. i have seen the dead in the mud. i have seen cities destroyed. i have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line—the survivors of a regiment of 1,000 that went forward 48 hours before. i have seen children starving. i have seen the agony of mothers and wives. i hate war.

Man can only be certain about the present moment. but is that quite true either? can he really know the present? is he in a position to make any judgment about it? certainly not. for how can a person with no knowledge of the future understand the meaning of the present? if we do not know what future the present is leading us toward, how can we say whether this present is good or bad, whether it deserves our concurrence, or our suspicion, or our hatred?
Men Hatred Certain
A god who draws near out of love, the holy father continued, walks with his people, and this walk comes to an unimaginable point. we could never have imagined that the same lord would become one of us and walk with us, be present with us, present in his church, present in the eucharist, present in his word, present in the poor, he is present, walking with us. and this is closeness: the shepherd close to his flock, close to his sheep, whom he knows, one by one.

Let each of us examine his thoughts; he will find them wholly concerned with the past or the future. we almost never think of the present, and if we do think of it, it is only to see what light is throws on our plans for the future. the present is never our end. the past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.
Mean Past Thinking
There is neither past nor future. there is only the present. yesterday was the present to you when you experienced it, and tomorrow will be also the present when you experience it. therefore, experience takes place only in the present, and beyond experience nothing exists.
Past Yesterday Tomorrow
It is not the present which unfluences the future, thou fool, but the future which forms the present. you have it all backward. since the future is set, an unfolding of events which will assure that future is fixed and inevitable.

Bitterness is the outcome of a wrong mental movement - the attempt to force external events to conform to internal fantasy. the cure is to see fantasy as fantasy, which will reveal it as neither necessary nor rewarding.
Events Movement Outcomes
I could easily go through all my books and mark the ones that were original, mark the ones that were adapted or pre-published that i've found. i'm guessing though that probably 75% of them are personal events. i just love a personal story.
