    No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings.
    -- William Blake
    Sometimes our light goes out but is blown again into flame by an encounter with another human being. Each of us owes the deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this inner light ... Albert Schweitzer.

    "During our lives we're faced with so many elements as well, we experience so many setbacks, and fight such a hand-to-hand battle with failure, head down in the rain, just trying to stay upright and have a little hope. The Tour isn't just a bike race, it tests you mentally, physically, and even morally."

    My man Lance is gearing up for his sixth Tour de France. His victories have served as sparklers of hope for many.. Riding with you in spirit Lance...~~~~~~~~~~~~xoxo, Patti

    #########################################
    Hold on..though it seems that there is nothing left for you.
    Hold on..in the darkness,till the sun comes breaking through.
    Hold on to your courage in the chaos of your grief.
    Hold on, bravely, blindly, to your faith, and your belief.
    Let go now,and you may drift,tossed by the waves of chance --
    hurled into strange waters by the storms of circumstance.
    The sea of life is deep--'tis only fools who venture out --
    at the mercy of the winds, upon the rocks of doubt.
    Hold on..though you've lost the thing that made your life worthwhile.
    Hold on with the strength you've got. Believe in God --
    Though it seems that hope has fled and every joy has gone,
    Listen to the Voice within that says to you HOLD ON!

    Only as high as I reach can I grow,

    Only as far as I seek can I go,

    Only as deep as I look can I see,

    Only as much as I dream can I be.

    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

    I love it , I love it ; and who shall dare

    Down in their hearts, wise people know this truth: the only way to help yourself is to help others.

    One of the funniest things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.
