Mark Twain once wrote: I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should
challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and
lead him to a quiet place and kill him.

Crazy stuff - had to grab some pictures of it accumulating (even though the weatherman said it would not) on our vehicles. See the pictures in my album, "Nature and Animals in my Hood". Come on everybody, send in your own snow pics!

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
--Mother Teresa
Keep on loving each other as brothers. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
Hebrews 13:1-2, The New International Version

We may not have so long to live.
So if we can.
Let's do each day a kindly deed.
And stretch a hand to those in need.

Things in our lives don't always go as planned. Yet when life
challenges us we seem to hide hoping it will all go away. I once read
this quote somewhere. "We shall not fear but fear itself." So is this to
say that we fear the unknown. Because our plan has been broken and not
on track, it becomes a bit scary. When life's challenges arise we must
face them head on. Show them no mercy and then move on and just remember just because your plan changes dosen't mean that your life's plan ever did. Have faith and in faith it will be.

Life can put forth challenges of the heart, mind, body and soul.
Those challenges are what make us human. Those challenges are what bends
our destiny. To ones destiny is it's own. The choices that we make are
actually our fait. Decisions that we think we have, should have or did
make are actually part of a plan and or pre determined destiny.

| | Author: shutterbug | Comments(0) | Users Blurbs | Lately, I have had the overwhelming feeling that all I do is fight what seem like losing and endless battles. Then I stop to think about why……for whom……the desired outcomes……and especially the consequences of not fighting……and I remember that the rewards and outcomes will all make it worth the battle scars in the long-run. As is my nature, I search for quotes to give me comfort and courage, and it always makes me feel better when I find just the right inspiration to keep me going. Here are some that are especially meaningful and inspirational to me right now.
We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God who is shaking them. --Charles C. West
If you're going through hell, keep going. --Winston Churchill
The difficulties of life are intended to make us better, not bitter. --Author Unknown
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. --Steven Kloves
God brings men into deep waters, not to drown them, but to cleanse them. --John Aughey
……and so onward I go, battle gear clutched closely

| | Author: shutterbug | Comments(1) | Users Blurbs | MOTHER’S DAY TRIBUTE to My Dear Mother, taken from us on 8/27/06:
“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.” --Anonymous
“You can shed tears that she is gone,
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.” --Anonymous
LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU MOM!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOMS, EVERYWHERE!
