About Me

the longer i live the more i realize the impact of attitude on life. attitude, to me, is more important than facts. it is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people say or think or do. it is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. it will make or break a company...a church...a home. the remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. we cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. we cannot change the inevitable. the only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. i am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how i react to it. and so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes. - unknown author

you're part of my soul
you're all that i know
i can't let you go

Judy Garland, one of the first people I truly remember idolizing. She was a woman of great talent and I still have all the words memorized from The Wizard of Oz.

days come and go but my feelings for you are forever

maybe i'm right
maybe i'm wrong
maybe i'm weak
maybe i'm strong
but nevertheless i'm in love with you.

maybe i'll win
and maybe i'll lose
maybe i'm in for crying the blues
but nevertheless i'm in love with you.

somehow i know at a glance
the terrible chances i'm taking
fine at the start
then left with a heart that is breaking.

maybe i'll live a life of regret
maybe i'll give much more than i'll get
but nevertheless i'm in love with you.

- Frank Sinatra

I have hurt someone.
I have broken their heart.
I will never be the same.

My Interests

playing oboe and English horn and piano, DANCING, listening to music, watching movies, sitting in front of a fireplace when it's quiet and dark and i can hear the crackling of the logs, writing poetry, reading (except i never have time), my bug anabelle!, my puppy snickerdoodle, hanging out with the few friends that i have, playing golf, bike rides on beautiful days, going to the zoo!!!

If a man does his best, whatelse is there? - General George S. Patton

It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything - Fight Club

Character cannot be developed in peace and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. - Helen Keller

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is no effort without shortcomings; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat - Theodore Roosevelt

Believe deep down in your heart that you are destined to do great things - Joe Paterno

Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work - Aristotle

A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. - Mark Twain

Heroes:
