The great power you have is to let it go...You focus on what you have, not that which has been mean, or unkindly removed. - Minnie Driver ===================== Most people are so busy knocking themselves out trying to do everything they think they should do, they never get around to what they want to do. - Kathleen Winsor ====================== A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval. - Mark Twain ====================== Whether is twenty, forty, or sixty; whether one has succeeded, failed or just muddled along; whether yesterday was full of sun or storm, or one of those dull days with no weather at all, life begins each morning!... Each morning is the open door to a new world - new vistas, new aims, new tryings. - Leigh Mitchell Hodges ======================== Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. - Foster C.

Now put the foundations under them." -- Henry David Thoreau ================ "Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that's creativity."~~~-- Charles Mingus
