Shina Hart Knows No One is Perfect Especially Herself

If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I'd finger-paint more, and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more hugging and less tugging.
~Diane Loomans, from "If I Had My Child To Raise Over Again"

Shina Hart Thanks Her Mother and Grandparents Daily

Give me the life of the boy whose mother is nurse, seamstress, washerwoman, cook, teacher, angel, and saint, all in one, and whose father is guide, exemplar, and friend. No servants to come between. These are the boys who are born to the best fortune. ~Andrew Carnegie

Chrishina Hart Admires Her Mother

It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself. ~Joyce Maynard

From you,
But if you didn't come
And find me ...
I would die.

Chrishina to Kenneth Michael Hart August 11 till Forever

I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion -
I have shudder'd at it.
I shudder no more.
I could be martyr'd for my religion
Love is my religion
And I could die for that.
I could die for you.
~ by John Keats ~










Shina Hart, Chrishina Hart, Kenneth Michael Hart

Liquid
by Chris Hughes

liquid sunshine spills down
upon silken shoulders to reflect
it's light in star-kiss'd eyes

laughter falls from lips,
rose petal soft, to banish
clouds gathered in my mind

her gentle touch would
cause the rust to
crumble from my bones

alabaster skin can scarce contain
the radiance of her soul










Shina Hart Believes in Love

Love's Labour Lost
by ckyh

The heart's been wringed dry.
It numbs, then thaws to hurt.

My giving falls on unopened palms,
Then breaks and scatters to sea.

I have no destiny: I tread alone.
You embrace me without arms,
Yet, fill my very soul.

My best will never be my best
For love's labour is lost.
Yet love, foolishly, lives on.











Shina Hart Believes in Angels

God's Gift To Me
by Patricia Annette Roden

Angel wings flutter in flight
Moving through the winter's night.

One ribbon floats through the air
One end here the other end there.

Every day we live through
The angels will shorten it an inch or two.

The ribbon will grow shorter with each and every day
Until we are together, then they'll snip their little hearts away.

Then one day we'll be two feet apart
The ribbon will be gone but not the love in our heart.

As we look into each others eyes
We begin to fully realize.

That God made you especially for me
And sent down his angels... just so it would be.












Shina Hart Agrees

Arthur Dobrin

A Humanist Code of Ethics:
Do no harm to the earth, she is your mother.
Being is more important than having.
Never promote yourself at another's expense.
Hold life sacred; treat it with reverence.
Allow each person the digity of his or her labor.
Open your home to the wayfarer.
Be ready to receive your deepest dreams;
sometimes they are the speech of unblighted conscience.
Always make restitutions to the ones you have harmed.
Never think less of yourself than you are.
Never think that you are more than another.
