Passing Friendships….

Old friendships are like old songs.
They can either fit in with our
changing lifestyle and thoughts,
or be placed upon a shelf…
save for a few meaningful lyrics.
Lorraine Jara 1989
Sail Away Unafraid…

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain
Welcome Spring!

Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush. ~Doug Larson
Keep Your Promises.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
from “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” - Robert Frost (1875 - 1963)
Sail Away Unafraid…

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Kind Acts In Action : Try To Do Something For Someone Else On Your Birthday

Below is an idea submitted by Tiffany Wright:
My husband and I have been trying something new for a couple of years now. On our birthdays, we make a point to do something for someone else. We have tried to break the tradition of celebrating this day as our own. Instead we try to recognize the world around us and give back as a celebration of life. There are little things we do from making a small donation to the causes we believe in to being extra nice to strangers on the street this day. As new parents to be we will be starting this tradition in our new family and wanted to pass it on to others that may also agree its a good idea.
Peace and Love from Los Angeles, California!

Project Wounded Warriors - Help Give A Small Gift To Our Soldiers

We’ve found a great way to help our service men and women. Many have had to adjust to a whole new way of living, some have lost arms or legs, some suffered terrible burns from the war. Please be so kind as to donate an AT&T International Calling Card (they LOVE to call their friends overseas), a store gift certificate (Target, Sears, J.C. Penny, Kohl’s) or a gas gift card (the soldiers families use the gas to transport the soldiers to the stores ect.) or a Visa Gift Card to the address below.
Thank you so much!
