Uma Chance de Recomeçar - Thomas Edison
A Chance to Start Over.
It was a cold December night in West Orange, New Jersey. Thomas Edison's
factory was humming with activity. Work was proceeding on a variety of
fronts as the great inventor was trying to turn more of his dreams into
practical realities. Edison's plant, made of concrete and steel, was
deemed "fireproof". As you may have already guessed, it wasn't!
On that frigid night in 1914, the sky was lit up by a sensational blaze
that had burst through the plant roof. Edison's 24-year-old son, Charles,
made a frenzied search for his famous inventor-father. When he finally
found him, he was watching the fire. His white hair was blowing in the
wind. His face was illuminated by the leaping flames. "My heart ached
for him," said Charles. "Here he was, 67 years old, and everything he
had worked for was going up in flames. When he saw me, he shouted,
'Charles! Where's your mother?' When I told him I didn't know, he said,
'Find her! Bring her here! She'll never see anything like this as long
as she lives.'"
Next morning, Mr. Edison looked at the ruins of his factory and said this
of his loss: "There's value in disaster. All our mistakes are burned up.
Thank God, we can start anew."

O lobo que existe dentro de Nós
Uma noite, um velho índio contou ao seu neto sobre a guerra que acontece dentro das pessoas. Ele disse: "A batalha é entre dois ‘lobos' que vivem dentro de todos nós".
Um é mau: é a raiva, inveja, ciúme, tristeza, desgosto, cobiça, arrogância, pena de si mesmo, culpa, ressentimento, inferioridade, mentiras, orgulho falso, superioridade e ego.
O outro é bom: é alegria, paz, esperança, serenidade, humildade, bondade, benevolência, empatia, generosidade, verdade, compaixão e fé.
O neto pensou nessa luta e perguntou ao avô:
"Qual lobo vence?"
O velho índio respondeu: "Vence aquele que você alimenta..."
