Some Points to Ponder...

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. -Unknown We can learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp... some are pretty... some are dull... some have weird names... and all are different colors.... But they all have to learn to live in the same box -Unknown The moment of victory is much too short to live for that and nothing else. -Martina Navratilova Wanting to reform the wicked with nectar-sweet advice, is like trying to control an elephant with the pith of a lotus-stem, or cutting a diamond with delicate petals of the flower, or sweetening the salty ocean with a drop of honey. -Subhashita Why are people so afraid? The answer is that they have made themselves helpless and dependent on others. We are so lazy, we do not want to do anything ourselves.

Plain sailing is pleasant,but you are not going to explore many unknown realms that way. -David Whyte
