The work goes on,
the cause endures,
the hope still lives and
the dreams shall never die.

The Universe Conspires in Your Favor
"When a person really desires something,
all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream...
Don't give into your fears," said the alchemist,
in a strangely gentle voice.
"If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart."
Don't give into your fears," said the alchemist,

"If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart."

The Alchemist, written by Paulo Coehlo
published in 1988 in Portugese, translated into English in 1994

Happy Birthday, Mitchell
25 years ago today
I gave birth to our eldest son, Mitchell.
What a wonderful day it was...
Peculiarly cool and rainy for an August day.
He was such a precious baby and so aware of his surroundings.
It was amazing how Mitchell would cry and cry in the nursery
but was content immediately upon hearing our voices.
The nurses dubbed Mitch "Billy Idol" due to his mop of blond hair
that extended from his scalp like it was electrified.
Little did we know,
that was a glimpse of the energy emanating from his rapidly firing neurons...
which has yet to lag.
We took him home on August 5th - a searing hot day.
And, so , our rich experiences as parents began.
We look forward to so many more.
Happy Birthday to our beloved son, Mitchell John Anthony.
You are a blessing in our lives.
Love, Mom and Dad
