The Prosperity Project

And Today We Rest

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 09:01:00 +0000

Today we rest, and not only that, it's the last day of this project! When we get done with our respective naps, it will be time to log in and talk about how well this particular project has "worked" and decide whether or not we have found new clarity in our lives, new insights, more money, deeper happiness, etc.

Also, I had a really good idea of how to use this month's treasure trove of "sayings" and good advice. You'll find that we now have an "Ask The Oculatum" widget at the bottom of the page here on the Prosperity Project. It's pretty cool - it took me 2 weeks to figure out how to make it, and it was definitely worth the effort. Enjoy!

What a fool

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 08:58:00 +0000

What a fool
does last
a wise man
does first

Be no beggar
to the morrow
if your purse
is bare today

Down no man's
faith
that your own
is better

Destiny
awaits
at every
turning

Loan no coin
to friend
save you
lose both

Do not
cut
that you
may unite

Our Most

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:55:00 +0000

Our most
devious foe
slumbers
within

The laborer
will easy see
the baker's
daily toil

Trust
not
till
proved

Truth
shall
fear not
question

Fortune
is often
in company
of effort

We are
known
by our
fellows

We May Not Avoid

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 08:50:00 +0000

We may
not avoid
our
destiny

Only
the good
feel
guilt

Stronger
to sway
of the storm
than sever

Ask of
the traveled
to know well
the voyage

Listen
well
for you
may hear

Honor
has the
keenest
sight

Any Path

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 08:42:00 +0000

Any path
will lead
with not
direction

The heart
of faith
fears not
of man

Barren winter
brings forth
the fruitful
spring

We are soon
defeated
by our own
quick hand

Judge not
your fellow
lest you
be judged

Seek good
for it
may then
find you

We are

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 08:38:00 +0000

We are
most gullible
to our own
untruth

Our
strength
is equal to
our burden

Knowledge
is often
a choice
by wisdom

Most
strident
are the
uncertain

Doubt
first
then
learn

No fiend
constant
more than
temptation

Your own words

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:34:00 +0000

Your
own words
may strike
you deaf

Truth
speaks
but few
words

We may not
impart
what we
do not hold

Our most
constant
companion
is change

That given
in grace
shall be
returned over

Follow
no one
you would
not lead

And Today We Rest

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 10:21:00 +0000

Here's where I'd like to be resting!

Our trifle wants

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 06:20:00 +0000

Our trifle
wants
do soon
enslave us

Nought
will come
to the
closed door

The
impossible
was once
a dream

This day
will not
soon
return

In virtue
there is
always
reward

See not
your fate
in others
faces

Lock Not

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:17:00 +0000

Lock not
for that
you have
no key

Be not fool
on first look
for show is
no substance

Want not
justice
ask only
mercy

Be honest
to yourself
be honest
to another

There is no
good cause
for anger
to another

Pity
the debtor
above
the pauper

Seek anew

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 05:14:00 +0000

Seek
anew
for it
is there

Obtain
with love
that refused
in force

The loving
spirit
is not
defeated

Not but
misfortunes
grow of
your garden

For in
everything
there is
choice

Triumph
is born
out of
adversity

From dark night

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 05:09:00 +0000

From
dark night
comes
dawn light

Well listen
to that
you do not
wish to hear

Courage
shows not
by dying
but living

To give love
we must
love first
ourself

Be not
what
you
are not

Let no
man
think
for you

Would the eagle

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 05:07:00 +0000

Would
the eagle
know he flies
so high

To decide
is not
to act
but prepare

Choose
not decide
a choice
you make

The sinful
choose not sin
they know not
happiness

Not of man
is so perfect
that can not
be improved

Do not
hasty know
that you may
not untie

A mountain

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 05:02:00 +0000

A mountain
is made of
small stones
drawn close

Savor
each
day
slowly

The evil lie
is the
word
not spoke

A true word
shall not
harm
the speaker

Seek out
the faultless
and you will
end alone

A great city
is built
up from
single stones

And Today We Rest

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 08:54:00 +0000

Lovely, isn't it?
Forests Wallpaper

A Great City

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:18:00 +0000

A great city
is built
up from
single stones

Savor
each
day
slowly

A mountain
is made of
small stones
drawn
close

Seek out
the faultless
and you will
end alone

A true word
shall not
harm
the speaker

The evil lie
is the
word
not spoke

Give Honest Effort

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 09:14:00 +0000

Give honest
effort
into
every task

A great sin
is to be
aware
of none

Rough sea
will aid
the able
captain

'Tis but
another plate
will satisfy
the glutton

Humility
is observed
when not
displayed

Have but
around you
all you see
beautiful

A Clean Hand

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 09:10:00 +0000

A clean hand
needs
not
washing

Wisdom
is born
from
wonder

Better to
light a lamp
than stumble
in the dark

Promise made
in the storm
is forgotten
in the calm

Steal
knowledge
from each
you meet

Ask not
your fellow
that you
can do

As you do more

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 09:07:00 +0000

As you
do more
you will
do more

Nothing
is new
but change
of old

Rather
to repair
than to
apologize

Ford
the stream
where it is
shallow

The hungry
will not
complain
the meal

A wise man
will change
his view
a fool never

Hide not

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 09:04:00 +0000

Hide not
the past
nor
live there

To influence
your enemy
first listen
of him

Life
is our
great gift
well use it

An
open door
allows in
the light

Trust only
in the
proof
of action

False beauty
has no
enemy
save time

Listen first

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 09:00:00 +0000

Listen
first
then
hear

Stones
build walls
but so to
bridges

'Tis not
coincidence
two ears
one tongue

The jewel
sparkles not
without
burnish

In all things
a little
is enough
to suffice

Also
the lion
suffers
flies

And Today We Rest

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 09:48:00 +0000

And while we rest

we have eye candy!

Abundance

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:41:00 +0000

Abundance
brings forth
our will
to squander

Desperate
needs
bring odd
bedfellows

Our fall
from grace
comes on
in long days

Praising
words
wither
quickly

Live
in private
as in
public

Stride out
to leave
footsteps
of your own

Know First

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 10:28:00 +0000

Know
first
your
path

Add only
sweet song
to the
silence

From
within
the light
shines

Know well
yourself
and be
of thanks

Be not
friend
to false
expectation

Respect well
the right
of your
rival

A poacher's bag

noreply@blogger.com (Two Feathers) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 10:28:00 +0000

A poacher's
bag
is never
full

Discard
not the old
till the new
is proved

Plant seed
before
you plan
the harvest

Better
a friend true
than many
false fawners

Many are
our gifts
we do
not use

The silver
tongue may
often talk
in tarnish
