    To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask the mother who gave birth to a premature baby.

    To realize the value of ONE WEEK ,ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

    To realize the value of ONE DAY, ask the daily wage laborer with kids to feed.

    To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

    To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask the person who missed the train.

    To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask the person who just avoided an accident

    To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.

    A mother is never smug. She knows that at any moment the school could call to tell her that her son has just ridden a motorcycle through the gymnasium.


    oh, not very inspirational.......:noway:

    I don't know if he really made it up-- but hubby said the other day--

    It's not who you are that matters, it's who you are becoming.

    Well-- I found it rather deep.

    (get it? Well? Deep? Get it? ))

    Yes. I'm not a mother either. That's why I can make fun of them......however, most children do not leave little turds on the floor when they are 10 years old. Stupid cats. The litter box is right there.

    OOOOH!
    I just made up a quote:

    Life is like a litter box. You need to tend to it every day. Otherwise, things pile up and it stinks to try to clean up your messes.®

    "It's never too late to be what you might have been."

    oh so VERY true!:wink::drinker:
  • “Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.”

    Energy and persistence conquer all things.
    Benjamin Franklin

    If we all did the things we are capable of,
    we would astound ourselves.
    Thomas Edison

    Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
    Henry David Thoreau

    You cannot plough a field by
    turning it over in your mind.

    “You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore”
    - Christopher Columbus

    “We must be the change we want to see”

    I love this thread.. :happy: :happy: :happy:

    More of a prayer than a quote, but it is one of my favorite especially if you consider that how you look and feel are entirely in your control.

    "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference"..

    This is one I've always found very powerful....and one I've always cherished:heart:

    People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
    When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.
    When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
    They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
    to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are.
    They are there for the reason you need them to be.
    Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
    this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
    Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
    Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
    What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

    This one touched me deeply today. Good words for anyone who has lost someone dear.

    Thanks fitness chick.. janiebeth
