Gratitude

Gratitude is not only the greatest of all the virtues,

but the parent of all the others.

Cicero (106 - 43 B.C.), Orator and statesman

Two kinds of gratitude:
The sudden kind we feel for what we take;
the larger kind we feel for what we give.

E. A. Robinson

Be the Light

"There are two ways of spreading light: to be

The candle or the mirror that reflects it."

-- Edith Wharton

Be...

Be daring,
be different,
be impractical,
be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision
against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary.

Sir Cecil Beaton (1904 - 1980)
Photographer and designer

Friends, you and me....
You brought another friend....
And then there were 3....
We started our group....
Our circle of friends....
And like that circle....
There is no beginning or end....
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.

Mistakes

Learn from the mistakes of others.

You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
