We are continually faced with great opportunities which are brilliantly disguised as unsolvable problems.” -- Margaret Mead
“A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.” -- Francis Bacon
What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks! You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping, and you may hear nothing. Nothing at all! You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny! Prepare yourself to recognize opportunity, to pursue and seize it.

I MISS MY MOTHER!!
Today April 19, 1989 my mothers life ended. Wow, what a total mind blower for me. I remember crying non stop for two days, like non stop!!
Memories deep in me of her in her younger years. Memories of her through her middle life. Memories of her in her senior years. Memories of the final chapter, which hurt beyond words.
Even through her heavy alcoholism, she was still a hot blooded Italian momma!! I have thanked God hundreds of times for the mother and father he gave me.
I loved my mother!
I miss you mom!!
Merrily

REVIEW YOUR CHOICES
If we are not careful we can become part of this strange race of people aptly described as spending their lives doing things they detest to make money. Buying things they don't need to impress people they dislike.
"You make what seems a simple choice: choose a man or a job or a neighborhood -- and what you have chosen is not a man or a job or a neighborhood, but a life."
"Choice is destiny’s soul mate."

TIME!!!!
We understand time as a continuum! Our memories link the moments of the past. Our imaginations draw on the patterns of our memories; to project the future.
If we leave the memories and drama of the mind behind; time can only be experienced now -- moment by precious moment! Experiencing what is happening right now!
Immerse yourself in the joy and wonder of every now and life will be a gift!
"The responsibility for both present and future is in our own hands. If we live right today, then tomorrow will fall into place."
Yesterday is gone! You cannot do anything about it! Tomorrow is not even here yet, so why worry! Right now this moment is the only moment you can do anything about. Don't live in yesterday or tomorrow for that matter. Enjoy the hear and now and watch how you can somewhat control the outcome of now!!!
Remember "Not my will but thine be done" then the now and the tomorrows of your life will fall into place HIS WAY!!
Just a thought of what I am thinking TODAY!!
