Somebody

"I always wondered why somebody doesn't do something about that.
Then I realized I was somebody."

~~Lily Tomlin

Catching Up and Moving Forward

In January I started this "365" blog with the intent of each day adding a new something something!  Well, it was a great idea then and it is a great idea now.  However, something happened between then and now.  Not sure what - maybe life.  It does tend to happen!  But I'm back with a renewed energy to do this thing.  So from this day forward I will share those things that make me think and stretch. 
But I'm also going to fill in those missed days until I'm caught up!
Oh and if I repeat myself....it is because somethings are just worth hearing twice.

Tomorrow

“Remember, tomorrow is connected with today, and what we do with
today determines the tomorrow."

~~Marvin J. Ashton

No Matter What Happens

"I've learned that no matter what happens,
or how bad it seems today, life does go on,
and it will be better tomorrow."
~~ Maya Angelou

Offended??

"Certainly clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean spirited things do occur
in our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense.
However, it ultimately is impossible for another person to offend you or to offend me.
Indeed, believing that another person offended us is fundamentally false.
To be offended is a choice we make; it is not a condition inflicted or imposed
upon us by someone or something else."
~~David A. Bednar

I remind myself of this almost daily.  This thought is so powerful to me and so freeing at the same time.

My Best

"We don’t have to be perfect today.
We don’t have to be better than someone else.
All we have to do is to be the very best we can."
~~ Joseph B. Wirthlin

Persistance

"That which we persist in doing becomes easier for us to do;
not that the nature of the thing itself is changed,
but that our power to do is increased."
~~Heber J. Grant

This quote has been with me for well over 25 years.  Faithly reminding me things will become easier.

Work

"The privilege to work is a gift.
The power to work is a blessing.
The love of work is success."
~~David O. McKay

This thought was posted in our kitchen as a reminder to me and my family of the blessings of work.
