“Smile as abuse is hurled your way and this too shall pass.”
meditation April 7, 2008
Open my minds eye so I may see and feel Your shinning light presence close to me.
Give me inner strength for my stumbling feet as I battle the crowd on life’s busy street.
And widen the vision of my unseeing minds eye so in passing faces I’ll recognize not just a stranger, unloved, and unknown, but a friend with a heart and soul that is much like my own.

“Everything in the world may be endured except continued prosperity.” 
“If any man wish to write in a clear style, let him be first clear in his thoughts; and if any would write in a noble style, let him first possess a noble soul.”

So I’m the maid of honor at my sisters wedding…and all this mooshmosh of stuff to do for the wedding has got me thinking a lot about how people forget the best part of getting married, which is being with your lovemuffin forever. Somewhere behind all the glitter, sequins, rice / or whatever ecofriendly replacement they’ve found, we have to remember that the love that two people share is way more romantic than the most elegant reception, which so many end up getting too drunk to even remember anyhoo.
“I dreamed of a wedding of elaborate elegance,
A church filled with family and friends.
I asked what kind of wedding he wished for,
He said one that would make me his wife.”

bird quotes March 14, 2008
The moment a little boy is concerned with which is a jay and
which is a sparrow, he can no longer see the birds or hear them sing
God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and
invented cages.
Jacques Deval
Use those talents you have. You will make it. You will give joy
to the world. Take this tip from nature: The woods would be a
very silent place if no birds sang except those who sang best.
Bernard Meltzer
