Peace


Peace evolves in stillness of mind and body.
Peace within another offers you space and a true reflection of your greatness.
Peace within yourself offers you a universe of possibilities.

Happiness Is a Journey

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness.

Happiness is the way.

So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one.

Take a Step Into the Darkness

When we walk to the end of all the light we have,
and take a step into the darkness of the unknown,
we must believe one of two things will happen:
That we will land on something solid,
or we will learn to fly.


~ A Native American saying.

Discover Your Drummer in 2010


If a man does not keep pace with others,
perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.

"There is always another appointment to be met, another bill to pay, another symptom presenting, another uneventful day to be notched on the wooden wall. We have sychronized our watches, studied our calendars, existed in minutes, and completely forgotten to step back and see what we've accomplished."


~ Jodi Picoult

I Believe



First heard this Brooks and Dunn song 4 years ago.... now, as then, it serves as a source of strength and inspiration.

Happiness


Happiness
When one's spiritual needs are met
by an untroubled inner life.
Happiness comes when your work and words
are of benefit to yourself and others.
