“There are only two ways to live your life.  One is as though nothing is a miracle.  The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

~Albert Einstein

“Lord bid war’s trumpet cease; Fold the whole earth in peace.”

~ Oliver Wendell Holmes

I invite you to take time this week to honor our nation’s Veterans.

“A mistake should be your teacher, not your attacker.  A mistake is a lesson, not a loss.  It is a temporary, necessary detour, not a dead end.”

~Unknown

“When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, until it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.”

~Harriet Beecher Stowe

“Interruptions can be viewed as sources of irritation or opportunities for service, as moments lost or experience gained, as time wasted or horizons widened.  They can annoy us or enrich us, get under our skin or give us a shot in the arm.  Monopolize our minutes or spice our schedules, depending on our attitude toward them.”

~William Arthur Ward

Certainly a perspective worth entertaining!  Enjoy your week.

“Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: ‘I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.  I can choose which it shall be.  Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet.  I have just one day, today, and I am going to be happy in it.'”

~Groucho Marx

“A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him.  Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it.  They all tried, but in vain.  Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one.  This they did with greatest ease.  Then said the father, ‘Thus my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone.'”

~Aesop

“Live your truth.  Express your love.  Share your enthusiasm.  Take action towards your dreams.  Walk your talk.  Dance and sing to your music.  Embrace your blessings.  Make today worth remembering.”

~Steve Maraboli

Surely one of the blessings to embrace this week was the gift of rain.  Enjoy the harvest season!

“Oh what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth.  Oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox.”

D.H. Lawrence

The Fall Equinox occurs at 7:29 PST Monday evening.  I invite you to connect with the magic.

“There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and the people who create it.  You surround yourself with people who make you laugh.  Forget the bad, and focus on the good.  Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones that don’t.  Life is too short to be anything but happy….”
