I created this profile with hope of inspiring at least one person to be the best that they can be.
If I can do that...then I've made a difference.

"You can dream, create, design and build the most wonderful place in the world, but it requires people to make the dream a reality." - Walt Disney
"Think back over the day, looking at the events and your own behaviour with as much honesty as you can muster, admitting mistakes and determining to correct them. Don't get stuck in regret; rather appreciate the lessons learnt from experience. We do inner work to become clear, but when clarity comes, it also reveals the things we don't like to see about ourselves. We have to remember that without seeing our shortcomings we can't begin to change them, so we eat some humble pie, acknowledge our transgressions and the pain they caused to others and ourselves, and hopefully don't repeat the same mistake. If we do make the same mistakes, which we do, we start all over again; acknowledge, accept, release, and let go."- - Excerpt from The Distracted Centipede by Mina Semyon

"If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting, but I would have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything." - Allyson Jones
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.”-Ghandi
"Every person, all the events of your life are drawn there because you have them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you." - Richard Bach (from his book Illusions)

We will meet again my friend,
A hundred years from today
Far away from where we lived
And where we used to play.
We will know each others’ eyes
And wonder where we met
Your laugh will sound familiar
Your heart, I won’t forget.
We will meet, I’m sure of this,
But let’s not wait till then...
Let’s take a walk beneath the stars
And share this world again.”
Ron Atchison
_______________________________________________
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.
Max Ehrmann, Desiderata, Copyright 1952.

"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." - Jimi Hendrix
"For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time to still be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have. And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time and remember that time waits for no one. - - So stop waiting; until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination."
“As I look back on all that's happened - growing up, growing together, changing you, changing me - there were times when we dreamed together, when we laughed and cried together. As I look back on those days, I realize how much I truly miss you and how much I truly love you. The past may be gone forever, and whatever the future holds, our todays make the memories of tomorrow. So, my lifetime friend, it is with all my heart that I send you my love, hoping that you'll always carry my smile with you, for all we have meant to each other and for whatever the future may hold.”
“One day at a time--this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering.”
“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.”
“Life is short, don't waste time worrying about what people think of you Hold on to the ones that care, in the end they will be the only ones there.”
"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
The enduring impact of our choices is not what we get, but what we become. - Michael Josephson
To observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence. - J. Krishnamurti

Beauty is truth, truth beauty' - that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. - John Keats
If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down. - Ray Bradbury
Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf. - Tagore
You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge. -Eckhart Tolle
Thou must be like a promontory of the sea, against which, though the waves beat continually, yet it both itself stands, and about it are those swelling waves stilled and quieted. - Marcus Aurelius
Without haste, but without rest. - Goethe
It's the little things you do that can make a big difference. What are you attempting to accomplish? What little thing can you do today that will make you more effective? You are probably only one step away from greatness. - Bob Proctor
To die for the revolution is a one-shot deal; to live for the revolution means taking on the more difficult commitment of changing our day-to-day life patterns. -Frances M. Beal

Our main business is not to see what lies dimly in the distance but to do what lies clearly at hand. - Thomas Carlyle

People who laugh actually live longer than those who don’t laugh. Few persons realize that health actually varies according to the amount of laughter. - James J. Walsh
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these. - George Washington Carver
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
Everyone knows that weeds eat out the life of the garden and of the productive fields. It's like that in the building and developing of character. No one knows our own faults and tendencies better than we do ourselves, so it is up to each one of us to keep the weeds out, and to keep all growth vigorous and fruitful. - George Matthew Adams
Ideals are like stars; you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny. - Carl Schurz
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself. - William Faulkner
Be a life long or short, its completeness depends on what it was lived for. - David Starr Jordan
The first and most important step toward...success is the feeling that we can succeed. - Nelson Boswell
Let us show, not merely in great crises, but in every day affairs of life, qualities of practical intelligence, of hardihood and endurance, and above all, the power of devotion to a lofty ideal. - Theodore Roosevelt
We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit. - e.e. cummings
Education is not filling a bucket, but lighting a fire. - William Yeats
To touch the soul of another human being is to walk on holy ground. - Stephen Covey
You see things; and you say 'Why?'; But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?' - George Bernard Shaw
The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another. - Luciano de Crescenzo

My Interests

“This is my life. It is my one time to be me. I want to experience every good thing.” - Maya Angelou

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. (traditional gaelic blessing)

I'd like to meet:



"So it is that every person you meet, each soul who crosses your path and affects you - wonderfully and terribly, briefly or for a lifetime - is here for that reason, and every relationship you engage in is but a small scene in a vast, ever-unfolding human panoply that is being endlessly enacted for the purpose of your soul's development. When you recognize this, you will suddenly, breathtakingly see that each person has been brought to you with a high and elegant purpose, that each soul has come to touch your soul and teach it, that each relationship exists to hasten your own soul's beautiful awakening. No longer is anyone a stranger; no longer can any of your relationships be seen as failures or mistakes." (Daphne Rose Kingma)
