SOLACE

Freedom is a noble thing!
Freedom makes man to have liking:
freedom all solace to man gives:
he lives at ease that freely lives!"

Books
are a real solace, friendships are good but action is better
than all.

"It's
incredibly restorative. A lot of people find great solace
in gardening. It teaches self-worth, patience, reliance,
persistence. It teaches us the circle of life. It teaches
us that things die, and from that new things come."
~ Nancy Kuhajda
My heart,
which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced

If
solace is any sort of succor to someone, that is sufficient.

"The
true charm of pedestrianism does not lie in the walking,
or in the scenery, but in the talking. The walking
is good to time the movement of the tongue by, and
to keep the blood and the brain stirred up and active;
the scenery and the woodsy smells are good to bear
in upon a man an unconscious and unobtrusive charm
and solace to eye and soul and sense; but the supreme
pleasure comes from the talk."
-- Mark
Twain

Is
solace anywhere more comforting than in the arms of
a sister.
