The Wisdom of the Heart

from the 14th Dalai Lama
Nobel Peace Prize Laureate (1989)


1.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
2. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.
3. Sleep is the best meditation.
4. Spend some time alone every day.
5. We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
6. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
7. We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection.
8. Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
9. If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.
10. The ultimate authority must always rest with the individual's own reason and critical analysis.

Nothing By Fool's Garden

There's no picture,
I could paint to tell you what you mean to me
And no poem,
I could write to tell you what you mean to me

You're more than fire
You are more than rain
You're more than love
And you are more than pain
No, no, there's no single word
that could explain

There's no flower,
blooming like the smile in your ethereal eyes
And no scholar,
ever could explain it - he could be so wise

You're more than heaven
You are more than Earth
You're the origin
You are more than birth
You're more than beautiful
You're everything to me

It's not the way that you move
It's not the glowing
on your face when you smile
that makes me trembling and calm
It's not that look in your eyes
when I am going
It's just everything - what you are

There's no ocean,
deep enough to show you what you mean to me
And no mountain,
high enough to show you what you mean to me

You're more than meaning
You are more than time
You are redemption
You're the reason why
You're so mysterious
You're everything to me

It's not the way that you move
It's not the glowing
on your face when you smile
that makes me trembling and calm
It's not that look in your eyes
when I am going

Don't you let them live in your soul
whenever they will try
to barricade the way that you go
You're fragile - souls can fly

It's not the way that you move...

Anatomy of a Web Address

URL (Universal Resource Locator, pronounced “you are ell”)

http - transfer protocol (type of information being transferred)
www.googleguide.com - website name, host name
googleguide - second-level domain name
com - top-level domain name
searchEngines - directory name (major category)
google - sub-directory name (sub-category)
searchLeader - file name (a file within the directory)
html - file format

Here’s a list of some common top-level domain names.

.edu - educational site (usually a university or college)
.com - commercial business site
.gov - U.S. government/non-military site
.mil - U.S. military sites or agencies
.net - networks, Internet service providers, organizations
.org - non-profit organizations and others

Because the Internet was created in the United States, “US” was not originally assigned to U.S. domain names; however, it’s used to designate American state and local government hosts, including many public schools, and commercial entities, e.g., well.sf.ca.us. The domain .ca represents Canada, unless it’s followed by .us, in which case it represents California.

Domain Codes State
.ca.us California
.nv.us Nevada
.tx.us Texas

Other countries have their own two letter codes as the top level of their domain names — although many non-US sites use other top-level domains (such as .com):

Domain Codes Country
.ca Canada
.de Germany
.dk Denmark
.jp Japan
.il Israel
.uk United Kingdom
.za South Africa

To limit results to a single site or domain, specify the site name (e.g., www.googleguide.com or googleguide.com) or a top-level domain name (e.g., .com or .edu) in Google’s domain selector.
