Happy Sunday ... January 16, 2011





Off to mass shortly and then a visit to IHOP ... pancakes, waffles or french toast ... choices so many.

Before I dash out for the day I am taking time to jot down some thought ... or more precisely some passages I have read this morning.

Seize the day and live it well and avoid growing winkle as much as possible.

Wisdom is a living stream, not an icon preserved in a museum. Only when we find the spring of wisdom in our own life can it flow to future generations. -- Thich Nhat Hank

Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth
The splendor of action,
The glory of power ---

For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope

Look well, therefore, to this day.
-- Shanskirt proverb by Kalidasa, Indian poet and playwright, Fifth Century A.D.

I say yes when I mean no and wrinkle grows. -- Naomi Shihab Nye

Good morning and live well! ... B-)



We cannot change the directions of the wind, but we can adjust our sails.
Have a beautiful day unless you plan otherwise. ... B-)
