I have gratitude for the things in life that make me come alive....family, friends, photography, philosophy, oceans, beaches, reading, learning, nature, science...

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs - ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."

Harold Thurman Whitman

Dale Carnegie

You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present. Jan Glidewell

Study as if you were to live forever. Live as if you were going to die tomorrow. Isidore of Seville

Today I was grateful that the beautiful sun rays came through my window and brought my plant to life.

“Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”
