    • About Me

      welcome- feel free to say hello anytime...these quotes sum up how i think and believe..."Whenever I see sunbeams coming through clouds, it always looks to me like God shining himself down onto us. The thing about sunbeams is they're always there even though we can't always see them. Same with God." ~Adeline Cullen Ray..."I could not say I believe. I know! I have had the experience of being gripped by something that is stronger than myself, something that people call God." ~Carl Jung... "Those who never rebelled against God or at some point in their lives shaken their fists in the face of heaven, have never encountered God at all." ~Catherine Marshall... "I would rather walk with God in the dark than go alone in the light." ~Mary Gardiner Brainard... "Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt and dance like no one is watching." ~Randall G Leighton..."We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly." ~Sam Keen..."Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction. " ~Antoine de Saint-Exupery..."Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place." ~Zora Neale Hurston..."Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile." ~Franklin P. Jones..."You must be the change you wish to see in the world." ~ Mahatma Gandhi..."What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. " ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson..."To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty; To find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson..."Live well, laugh often, and love with all of your heart!" ~Unknown..."Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart." ~Unknown..."Listen to your heart above all other voices." ~ Marta Kagan..."It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for something you are not." ~ Andre Gide..."Someone's opinion of you does not have to become your reality." ~ Les Brown..."When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place." ~ Unknown... AND MOST IMPORTANTLY: "Never, never, never give up!" ~ Winston Churchill
