Quips that underlie all our lives and daily dealings. A quote, or saying, may be mine or any other author whose expression impresses. When it is mine, I will clearly state. If I can identify the author who penned what I say, I will give him, or her, credit. On occasions, when no one is identified, the assumption should be made that such quote is NOT mine.</description><sy:updatePeriod>hourly</sy:updatePeriod><sy:updateFrequency>1</sy:updateFrequency><sy:updateBase>2000-01-01T12:00+00:00</sy:updateBase><items><rdf:Seq><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/596343" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/595960" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/595259" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/594259" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/593533" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/592980" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/591249" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/590268" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/589680" /><rdf:li resource="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/589060" /></rdf:Seq></items></channel><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/596343"><title>Satisfying Commitment.</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/596343</link><description>When you are down on yourself and begin to question your worth, your purpose, your viability; when you are riddled with self doubt, just take a deep breath; say thank you for the miracle of creation you are. Internalize the commitment that you will help your neighbours. There is no greater...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/595960"><title>The Measure of Risk.</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/595960</link><description>Success is in direct proportion to the risks we take; failure is in the inverse. It may be logical to conclude that those who take no risks will never experience failure. Copyright © 2009 LST's INFOS and QUIPS.

Yet have we reconciled the fact that the bee which produces enough venom, which on occasion has killed humans, is rather impaled...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/594259"><title>Your Life's Measure</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/594259</link><description>Greater is your life measured no t by whom you touch but by those who are touched by you.

In continuing to pursue these 'unattainable' goals we test our energy and faculties to the utmost limits. And we are less likely to fail since we are...</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/591249"><title>We Cannot Afford To Do That.</title><link>http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/EX_TURPI1596/591249</link><description>We cannot change the past; yet the future is in our hands. We can transform the world by what we say or do. Remain silent, docile, and dormant and we will have cheated ourselves and failed all mankind. We cannot afford to do that.
