More From Khalil Gibran

I want men to admire me, but that's a trick you learn at school--a movement of the eyes, a tone of voice, a touch of the hand on the shoulder or the head. if they think you admire them, they will admire you because of your good taste, and when they admire you, you have an illusion for a moment that there's something to admire.
School Eye Men
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality
The world is full of people who have lost faith: politicians who have lost faith in politics, social workers who have lost faith in social work, schoolteachers who have lost faith in teaching and, for all i know, policemen who have lost faith in policing and poets who have lost faith in poetry. it's a condition of faith that it gets lost from time to time, or at least mislaid.
Faith Teaching People
All bad qualities centre round the ego. when the ego is gone, realisation results by itself. there are neither good nor bad qualities in the self. the self is free from all qualities. qualities pertain to the mind only.
Self Ego Mind
The reality of living by faith as though we were already dead, of living by faith in open communion with god, and then stepping back into the external world as though we are already raised from the dead, this is not once for all, it is a matter of moment-by-moment faith, and living moment by moment. this morning's faith will never do for this noon. the faith of this noon will never do for suppertime . the faith of suppertime will never do for the next morning. thank god for the reality for which we were created, a moment-by-moment communication with god himself.
God Morning Communication
I have a reverence for medicine because i hero-worshiped my father [a former doctor], and because i admire doctors, i admire study, empiricism and rational thought. i don't study, empiricize or think rationally myself - but i admire it in others.

My father lifted me up in his strong gentle arms and said something i will never forget. he said, "i know you can do it. there is nothing that you can't do. we're going to climb that hill together even if it takes us all day." and at age 12 losing your leg pretty much seems like the end of the world. but as i climbed onto his back and we flew down the hill that day, i knew he was right. i knew i was going to be ok. you see, my father taught me that even our most profound losses are survivable. and it is what we do with that loss - our ability to transform it into a positive event.
Strong Father Loss
My mother and father and many of my relatives had been sharecroppers.

The reservedness and distance that fathers keep, often deprive their sons of that refuge which would be of more advantage to them than an hundred rebukes or chidings.
Father Distance Son
.. free and responsible development of the individual, so that he may place his powers freely and gladly in the service of all mankind. there is no room in this for the divinization of a nation, of a class, let alone of an individual. are we not all children of one father, as it is said in religious language?
