Age is not important unless you are a cheese

Fools rush in where angles fear to tread

Lies have short legs

DREAM...for on the wings of a dream,all things are possible

LOVE ....for in it's warmth,all creatures flourish

My Favorite Quote's:

You gain strength, courage and confidence with every experience.

All life’s best adventures start with fear.

Never let your persistance and passion, turn into stubborness and ignorance.

Art is seeing what everyone else has seen, and thinking what nobody else has thought.

Andrew Marvell. 1621–1678 To His Coy Mistress
HAD we but world enough, and time,
This coyness, Lady, were no crime
We would sit down and think which way
To walk and pass our long love's day.
Thou by the Indian Ganges' side
Shouldst rubies find: I by the tide
Of Humber would complain. I would
Love you ten years before the Flood,
And you should, if you please, refuse
Till the conversion of the Jews.
My vegetable love should grow
Vaster than empires, and more slow;
An hundred years should go to praise
Thine eyes and on thy forehead gaze;
Two hundred to adore each breast,
But thirty thousand to the rest;
An age at least to every part,
And the last age should show your heart.
For, Lady, you deserve this state,
Nor would I love at lower rate.

But at my back I always hear
Time's wingèd chariot hurrying near;
And yonder all before us lie
Deserts of vast eternity.
Thy beauty shall no more be found,
Nor, in thy marble vault, shall sound
My echoing song: then worms shall try
That long preserved virginity,
And your quaint honour turn to dust,
And into ashes all my lust:
The grave 's a fine and private place,
But none, I think, do there embrace.

Now therefore, while the youthful hu
Sits on thy skin like morning dew
And while thy willing soul transpires
At every pore with instant fires,
Now let us sport us while we may,
And now, like amorous birds of prey,
Rather at once our time devour
Than languish in his slow-chapt power.

Let us roll all our strength and all
Our sweetness up into one ball,
And tear our pleasures with rough strife
Thorough the iron gates of life:
Thus, though we cannot make our sun
Stand still, yet we will make him run.

Here's a Canadian quote;
"If your not lead dog on the sled team, the view never changes"

One of my favorite sources for quotes has to be Oscar Wilde. Here are some of my favs.

"Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative."

"I think that God in creating Man somewhat overestimated his ability."

"There are only two kinds of people who are really fascinating: people who know absolutely everything, and people who know absolutely nothing."

I just wrote this for a friend that is going thru some rough times.

We will have to weather many storms in our life time; some greater than others, but in the end the sun will always shine another day. The flowers that bloom from this are what we look back upon as our life’s accomplishments. Even the most regal of flower beds can not be made without pulling some weeds from time to time. Do not allow yourself to become so tangled as to forget to enjoy the rose that you’ve created.

Not sure If this Goes Here But oh well Just sharing....I have Had This For a while Kicking around......No it is a simple Paste off the internet......At times When I feel I'm not being
understanding ...I read it and it centers Me...


..In Conclusion I would like to tell You a story..
it's about four people named,.Everybody,Nobody, Somebody, and Anybody.
There was an important job to be done, and Everybody was sure that Somebody was going to do it,..Anybody could have done it,..but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that,because it was Everbody's job..
Everybody thought Anybody could do it,
But Nobody realized that Everybody would'nt do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed,Somebody,When Nobody did what Anybody could have done.......



Just sharing...I really like ......did not write it....It reminds Me to Pull my weight in the Family I have and Love So Much.......

For want of a nail the shoe was lost
For want of a shoe the horse was lost
For want of a horse the message was lost
For want of a message the battle was lost
For want of a battle the war was lost
And all for the want of a horse shoe nail

here are just a few from our beloved Homer Simpson!!!

"A woman is like a beer. They look good, they smell good, and you'd step over your own mother just to get to one."

"Ahh beer... I would kill everyone in this room for a drop of sweet beer."

"It is better to watch things than to do them."

"Television - teacher, mother, secret lover!"

and my favorite "I'm not normally a religious man, but if your up there, save me Superman!"

It may seem like all the good ones are taken, but you haven't really met all of them, yet, have you?!? My favorite is: "What portends? What will the future bring? I do not know, I have no presentiment. When a spider hurls itself down from some fixed point, consistently with it's nature, it always sees before it only an empty space wherein it can find no foothold however much it sprawls. And so it is with me: always before me an empty space; what drives me forward is a consistency which lies behind me. This life is topsy-turvey..."

Sorry, that last quote was from Soren Kierkegaard. "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." Ralph Waldo Emerson "Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice. Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love." Martin Luther King Jr.
