"We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations." Charles Swindoll     06/17/2010

Men spend their lives in anticipations,-in determining to be vastly happy at some period when they have time. But  the present time has one advantage over every other-it is our own. Past opportunities are gone, future have not come. We may lay in a stock of pleasures, as we would lay in a stock of wine; but if we defer the tasting of them too long, we shall find that both are soured by age. Charles Caleb Colton     06/15/2010

Happiness does not consist in pastimes and amusements but in Virtuos Activities. Aristotle    06/14/2010

All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible. T.E. Lawrence.       06/11/2010
