Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Extra, Extra, Read All About It!!!

This just in from Carson, Cub Klondike Gal Reporter:

"The Powers That Be" (namely my mommy) left me free to roam while she showered today.

I believe I used my time wisely and profitably, what do you think????

(For those of you who wonder and don't know - - - Carson is my Great-Niece who lives with her mommy and daddy in Sitka, Alaska.)

Reva said...: Once when my daughter was almost 2yrs I let her stand along side the bed and brush my hair, It felt so good I dozed off and without a break in strokes she continued to play. When I finally aroused I found my hair full of baby powder that she had brushed in thoroughly. She was very proud of herself, and I had a good laugh.; March 1, 2011 at 2:35 PM
Patti @ Pandoras Box said...: Hey, she is so sweet! And I loved Sitka, beautiful scenery! As for Jamaica, Falmouth was very safe, and even the locals kept telling us....I am sure they want to keep it that way to build up tourism as it is a poor town and this is the biggest thing ti happen there (it is in between Ochos Rios and Montego Bay) I have also heard that other places are not as safe - people were so welcoming and it was SO MUCH FUN!! Just so festive. I think you probably made wiser decision going to CR!; March 2, 2011 at 6:44 AM
