Attitude



There once was a woman who woke up one morning,
looked in the mirror,
and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.

Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today?"
So she did
and
she
had
a
wonderful
day.


The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror
and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.

"H-M-M," she said,
"I think I'll part my hair down the middle today?"
So she did
and
she
had
a
grand
day.



The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed th at she had only one hair on her head.

"Well," she said,
"today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail."
So she did
and
she
had
a
fun,
fun
day.



The next day she woke up ,
looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head.

"YEA!" she exclaimed,
"I don't have to fix my hair today!"



Attitude is everything.






Be kinder than necessary,

for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Live simply,




Love generously,



Care deeply,



Speak kindly.......



Leave the rest to God



With love



Happy 2007

What once was filled with wonder
Lies cold within my heart;
Return, O Lord, that wonder,
And may it not depart. —Sper

"You are familiar with the phrase 'Man's reach exceeds his grasp'? It's a lie. Man's reach exceeds his nerve."--Nikola Tesla.

I have an older Dear friend who I haven't seen in a while but she survived in a concentration camp with her siblings during the war and saw some horrendous things no one should ever have to see but she was a beacon of light everywhere she went. Her name Is Ms Weitert and she used to always tell me that
"God is never in a hurry and He is always on time". That may seem simplistic, but depending on your circumstances it could be profound. I guess its about waiting and trusting, Lord help me with that reminder.

[Ayesa86]

All right. I don't usually do mass quotes, especially by the same person, but right now I'd rather do several at once, so here are some that have been running through my mind lately.

"Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more."


"I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success...Such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything."


"The last 29 days of the month are the hardest."


All three of these quotes come from Nikola Tesla, on who I have been doing quite a bit of studying as of late, a sort of revival of one of my childhood passions. I don't know that they'll mean anything to anyone else, but if they say as much to anyone else as they have to me, then that's a good thing I suppose.

"When you think about it, a department store is kind of like a museum."---Andy Warhol.

I was once told to

"Chew the meat and spit out the bones!"
I think she meant, there's lessons in life in every moment and something you can get even from the most crappy moments where is seems like all gristle.

[Trees]

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't
supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have
your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder
every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt
when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend.
You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry
because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose
someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much,
and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty
seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never
get back.

Don't be afraid that your life will end,
be afraid that it will never begin.

This was at the bottom of an email I received today and I just wanted to share it...it's a great quote...

"The artist knows he must be alone to create; the writer, to work out his thoughts; the musician, to compose; the saint, to pray. But women need solitude in order to find again the true essence of themselves." - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Isaiah 43:18-19 "Do not remember the former things, or consider things of old. I am about to do a new thing' now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert."

[Cheza]

Thanks for that quote, Key. I needed to be reminded.
