    and without law, and must be plucked where it is found,

    “All we see of someone at any moment is a snapshot of their life,

    there in riches or poverty,

    in joy or despair.

    Snapshots don't show the million decisions

    that led to that moment.”



    -- Richard Bach,

    I don't want

    to get to

    the end

    of my life

    and find

    that I lived

    just

    the length

    of it.


    I want to have lived the width of it as well.
    -Diane Ackerman-

    "I take a sun bath and listen to the hours, formulating, and disintergrating under the pines, and smell the resiny hardihood of the high noon hours. The world is lost in a blue haze of distances, and the immediate sleeps in a thin and finite sun"...Zelda Fitzgerald

    If I find myself getting stirred up about anythng during the day, I say,

    The tendency to brood and fret
    Never solved any problem yet.
    Worry is a rocking chair
    That never takes me anywhere.

    Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. ~Leo Buscaglia


    A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives roses. ~Chinese Proverb

    I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.
    -Leo Buscaglia

    "Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush; anxious for greater developments and greater wishes and so on; so that children have very little time for their parents; Parents have very little time for each other; and the home begins the disruption of the peace of the world."...Mother Teresa

    It's not enough to have a dream, Unless you're willing to pursue it.
    It's not enough to know what's right, Unless you're strong enough to do it.
    It's not enough to learn the truth, Unless you also learn to live it.
    It's not enough to reach for love, Unless you care enough to give it.
    Men who are resolved to find a way for themselves will always find opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they will make them." - Samuel Smiles-

    "The surgeon I went to initially said,"YOU HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.WHY DON'T YOU READ A BOOK BY A DOCTOR NAMED SUSAN LOVE? THEN YOU WON'T HAVE TO ANNOY ME."That's a direct quote. I told him I would not only get her book----I'd ask her to do my surgery. And she did."...Linda Ellerbee, broadcast journalist,author, breast cancer survivor.

    There is an old Cherokee Expression

    that goes,

    "When you were born,

    you cried and the world rejoiced.

    Live your life so that when you die,

    the world cries and you rejoice."

    People deal too much with the

    negative, what is wrong....

    Why not try and see positive things,

    to just touch those things and

    make them bloom.
