"I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires." 

~Happy Birthday, Susan B. Anthony!

Happy Heart Day!

Loving is not just looking at each other, it's looking in the same direction.  

~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand, and Stars, 1939

I'm not a fan of this manipulative commercial guilt driven holiday.  If you love someone, tell them everyday.

Instead of romance how about we "love" everyone, or if "love" is too hard, lets just not hate.

Give a thought to your heart as well... February is Heart Health Month.  Get off the couch, get off the internet, go out and do something health for your heart! ... and while you're at it - Eat a vegetable or two.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

      ~Thomas Alva Edison

However you say it...


May the best you have ever seen be the worst you will ever see.
May the mouse never leave your grain store with a tear drop in its eye.
May you always stay hale and hearty until you are old enough to die.
May you still be as happy as I always wish you to be.

May the hill rise behind you,
And may the mountain be always over the crest;
And may the God that you believe in
Hold you in the palm of his hand.

“Cherish your solitude. Take trains by yourself to places you have never been. Sleep out alone under the stars. Learn how to drive a stick shift. Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back. Say no when you don’t want to do something. Say yes if your instincts are strong, even if everyone around you disagrees. Decide whether you want to be liked or admired. Decide if fitting in is more important than finding out what you’re doing here. Believe in kissing.”

—	Eve Ensler

Got this from George Takei's FB... I love it!

Instead of watching TV...

You know what you should do? Take photos of friends with their face squished against glass. Then assign the pictures to your phone contacts; it'll look like they're trapped inside your phone... just a thought.

Lest you think I have original thoughts, I confess to having stolen this from someone on Twitter ... or Tumblr... or somewhere.
