“True happiness… is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.”
~ Helen Keller

“The genius of life is to carry the spirit of childhood into old age.”
~ Aldous Huxley

“The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That block of granite is often nothing more than a decision.”
~ Thomas Carlyle

“God wisely designed the human body so that we can neither pat our own backs nor kick ourselves too easily.”

“The capacity to rise above temptation is the essence of freedom. One is simply not free to serve, to do the right, when one gives in to the temptation to stay in power; that is, when it becomes a compulsion to do whatever is most popular.”
~ M. Scott Peck

“It is strange that in our praying we seldom ask for a change in character, but always a change in circumstances.”

“Good manners are made up of small sacrifices.”

“Little progress can be made by merely attempting to repress what is evil; our great hope lies in developing what is good.”
~ Calvin Coolidge

“Lord, when we are wrong, make us willing to change. And when we are right, make us easy to live with.”

“The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.”

    Gijoe: You made me laugh at myself…I have said that I have never went past the age of 45 mentally…though I am no fool…I know that I am 79 years old, but sometimes I break out in song and dance around the house and it feels great…A sense of humor helps a lot. Think young always, but be careful going down the stairs and hold on to the railing… hee hee. Life is GOOD !!!

    Hi Elizabeth, : ] I was suprise with the age 79 because I’m 82 and I still have my dance moves from when I was 12 years old. Yes I still got the dance moves…the robot and the snake. Too old for breaking any bones, so I think that’s one rule I will remember always hold on to the rail!
