True peace of mind -
Why take it, it is thine!

quote of the day - walking with Pleasure and Sorrow

I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.

I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And ne'er a word said she;
But, oh! The things I learned from her,
When Sorrow walked with me.

quote of the day - complete good-byes

"My friends, if we tend to the things that are important in life, if we are right with those we love and behave in line with our faith, our lives will not be cursed with the aching throb of unfulfilled business.  Our words will always be sincere, our embraces will be tight.  We will never wallow in the agony of 'I could have, I should have.'  We can sleep in a storm.  And when it's time, our good-byes will be complete."

- Rev Albert Lewis (from a 1975 sermon as retold in Mitch Albom's book Have a Little Faith)
