3/23/15 - WORTH REPEATING

********


You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays. I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering. 

~ Harold Hill in The Music Man

Chauffeuring is not a mandatory part of your job description. In this season that you’re in right now, maybe one more thing is just one too many. Maybe you rotate kids sign-ups by seasons. Maybe you have a one-at-a-time rule, Maybe you set an age limit for participation. Maybe you just say no for now. Maybe you say no forever.
That doesn't make you horrible, or awful, or selfish, or less-than. It makes you family-centered rather than activity-centered. Last I checked, that was the whole goal of having, you know, a family.

~ Heather Schwarzen in It's ok to say no at To Sow a Seed

Don’t just stand in your own little place, reach out and touch a friend. Give of yourself and you will find the blessings never end.

Our health is like the laundry, it is never done. We just keep moving forward, one step at a time.

~ Pam Carter

One day she finally grasped that unexpected things were always going to happen in life, and with that she realized the only control she had was how to choose to handle them. So she made the decision to survive using courage, humour and grace. She was the queen of her own life and the choice was hers.
