GREAT QUOTES..

Good Morning everyone it is hump day. For me this week is dragging by. Here is one to get through the day.

"It is not enough to be good if you have the ability to be better."

It's Thrusday, and Gus that was really funny. Just ask my husband how many times it has happened to him, when he and my son are playing around. I will give you a funny one about kids to, here it is:

"The best way to keep children at home is to make the home atomosphere pleasant- and let the air out of the tires."
Dorothy Parker
See ya
Dawn

I loved the kids one too!!! Anyway, I just got a birthday card from my friend Beth and I was touched by it. Thought I'd share it with you..

Count your garden by the flowers,
never by the leaves that fall,
Count your days by the golden hours,
don't remember clouds at all,
Count the nights by stars, not shadows,
Count your life by smiles, not tears,
And with joy on every birthday,
Count your age by friends not years.

The last line rang especially true for me because of the people here on this board and I'm truly grateful for each and every one of you.

It is Friday YEA..... And for those of you around here it is also a weekend of coming together and watch Ohio State Buckeye and Michigan Wolverines. It is like a national holiday around here. So big party at my house for the Buckeyes... Here is one about the game that I heard at work:

"For some, it's only a game. For many, it's THE ONLY game."
I hope everyone has a great weekend. And GO BUCKEYE'S

Here is one related to parenting.

If you don't play with them when they are young.
They won't play with you when your old.

We all share are thoughts,and write words down.
She's like an Angel, with wings that move.
Can't Imagine she's anything less.
If you were to stand close too her,you would feel her thoughts.
She moves like this Angel within us all.
Always Holding each word close.
What can I say,as am looking down my glass,
Seeing Reflections of Cherie the one we all love
from all of us above.........by Eric & all xxoxox

Reflections of Cherie [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]
are bound to guarantee
a good time for the CC masses!
With the words Stingray has said [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
echoing in my head
I suggest, for CC, we all raise our glasses!

"There is an art of listening.
To be able really to listen, one should abandon or put aside all prejudices, preformulations and daily activities...But unfortunately most of us listen through a screen of resistance. We are screened with prejudices, whether religious or spiritual,psychological or scientific; or with our
daily worries, desires and fears. And with these for a screen, we listen. Therefore, we listen really to our own noise, to our own sound, not to
what is being said. It is extremely difficult to put aside our training, our prejudices, our inclination, our resistance,and,reaching beyond the verbal expression, to listen so that we understand instantaneously."
