Let Them Go

I don't have the same friends that I did growing up.  Those grade school friends are all grown up and our lives have moved on. Same with "Well be friends forever" from high school (at least that's what's written in my year book)

As we change so do our tastes, activities and friends and that's all OK.

When I first moved to Florida I met some people who made the change easy.  Only three of those people are still real friends: people I keep in contact and see as well as do stuff with and that's OK

No One Like Me

Just like a snowflake or a fingerprint YOU are unique. Even identical twins who seem to share so many characteristics are individuals with tastes, feelings, loves and dislikes

When mass marketing tries to package US/you and me don't let them. You will not look like a model in those fancy jeans or sunglasses.

My, your thoughts are yours!  Express them, live them and lets embrace all that is different

There is NO ONE like YOU!!!

No Change?

On the day you cease to change, you cease to live.
- Anthony de Mello SJ

Good Fortunes

One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.
                      - Archibald Rutledge

Explore. Dream. Discover

20 years from now you will be disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the one’s you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
  

― Mark Twain

Your Own Battle

We all have a battle and our goal is to win it.

Where

By now you've gotten the idea I try not to be conventional. Living Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken" I'll admit has gotten me off track but always my own choosing.

Trying to keep real, always honest can be refreshing. I choose to live "An unexamined  Life" as Socrates said.

How about you? Can we work this path together showing our true colors today: Lets see WHERE it will take us.

All For the Best

Rain gotcha down?  How about that snow way up north or the wicked forest fires in California?

I feel for all of those and yet what I can't control won't get me down.

Lets focus on the good, what can brighten a day, a moment or a life
