I love this quote “O Lord, help me to be pure, but not yet.” Saint Augustine
What started as a necessary evil, Twitter, has turned into a fun social media experiment. At last count, my Twitter ( @EnlightenYurDay ) had 2,153 followers. I Tweet and Retweet inspiring and eye-catching quotes along with current Social Media Trends from TweetDeck. I use #HashTags and referral sites like MrTweet to cast my net wider. My Twitter philosophy is simple: share truth and beauty. Here is list of my favorite Retweets and Tweets. Kindest Regards to all my Twitter contributors.

Shantaram quotes on destined love, the past, and the heart.

When more then one friend recommends the same book to me, I consider it an omen. With Shantaram, I knew after the first two pages it was a brilliant book. Here are three quotes from the first two chapters that I hope will inspire you to read this masterpiece: Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts.
“The ancient Sanskrit legends speaks of a destined love, a karmic connection between souls that are fated to meet and collide and enrapture one another. The legends say that the loved one is instantly recognized because she’s loved in every gesture, every expression of thought, every movement, every sound, and every mood that prays in her eyes. The legends say that we know her by her wings–the wings that only we can see–and because wanting her kills every other desire of love. Read More→
Enlightening Chinese proverbs and a question from a quote
Posted by: | Comments
“Religion answers questions. spirituality asks questions.” Is one inherently better then the other? And can there be balance between the two? Most importantly, is this quote trying to say that spirituality is of greater importance then religion? All your thoughts and feedback are greatly appreciated, so drop me a comment below. Thanks…
The vacation is over. Perhaps, I needed a little break from my online obsessions. What I missed most while taking a break from Enlighten Your day was the comments and feedback from my readers. So today, I heard this quote that I felt compelled to share with my readers in hopes that you might have something to teach me about the questions I am putting forth, or maybe you just feel the desire to share something about this topic.
In addition, to compliment this post, I have added some enlightening Chinese proverbs for your reading pleasure. I found the proverbs on a custom stationary website while doing some random googling. Check it out when you get the chance. www.documentsanddesigns.com
