In every seed to breathe the flower,
in every drop of dew
To reverence a cloistered star
Within the distant blue;
To wait the promise of the bow
Despite the cloud between,
Is Faith-the fervid evidence
Of loveliness unseen....John B Tabb

to get -- only with what you are expecting to give --
which is everything.

Quote of the month:
Tim Allen, comedian, had this to say about Martha Stewart:
"Boy, I feel safer now that she's behind bars. O.J. & Kobe are walking around; Osama Bin Laden too, but they take the one woman in America willing to cook, clean and work in the yard and haul her ass to jail."

If you always think what you always thought,
You'll always get what you always got.
Time exists so everything doesn't happen at once.
Space exists so everything doesn't happen to you.
I'm too blessed to be stressed

The World's Greatest Need
A little more kindness and a little less greed;
A little more giving and a little less need;
A little more smile and a little less frown;
A little less kicking a man when he's down;
A little more "we" and a little less "I";
A little more laughs and a little less cry'
A little more flowers on the pathway of life;
And fewer on graves at the end of the strife.
--C. Austin Miles--

"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."Author Unknown

Let us be like a bird for a moment perched on a frail
branch while he sings;
Though he feels it bend, yet he sings his song,
knowing that he has wings.

THIS IS DEDICATED TO THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO ARE FIGHTING TO KEEP US FREE AND TO THOSE WHO HAVE GONE TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR US:
It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man
who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while
DARING GREATLY
so that his place shall never be
with those timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat.Theodore Roosevelt
26th President Of The United States.
I FEEL PATRIOTIC TODAY!!!!!!!OOHRAH

A Thought To Ponder

supposed to make you feel
good, or to make you
feel miserable either.
Life is just supposed
to make you feel."
