Some favorite sayings...

Families are like fudge - mostly sweet with a few nuts. ~Author Unknown~

The true measure of a man is how they treat someone that can do them absolutely no good.

"Difficulties in life are intended to make us better not bitter. "

Peace of mind. Yes that is what you get for accepting people for who they are. People are to be enjoyed. Can you imagine how boring the world would be if everyone was like each other?

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right and forget the one's who don't. Believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance grab it with both hands. If it changes your life--let it! Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it!

Haven't been on my knees since ~ I don't remember when~ Things were going great ~ Til they fell apart again ~ So I listened to the spirit ~ As it told me what to do ~ Said you can't go hating others who done wrong to you ~ Sometimes we get angry ~ But we must not condemn ~ Let the good Lord do his job ~ And you just pray for them.

God made dirt, so dirt don't hurt.

Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, faith looks up.

Live simply, love genorously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our creator who loves us!
