It was to late to erase my first note!! I'm very tired, tired of freezing, tired of feeling ineffectual, but I got a slap in the face (that I needed). Even for myself, its amazing that at the precise moment in life when a story, quote, letter, something, is desparately needed, it just jumps out and says it all. When I checked my mail after writing the first note earlier, this is what I came across: 1- Here is your horoscope for February 10. There's too much talking around you. The abstract becomes increasingly meaningless. Attend to your inner life for awhile. Plants and pets reconnect you with your role in the physical world. Until tomorrow, Kelli Fox, Astrologer 2- ** Quote-of-the-day! ** 10% of life involves what it does to you. 90% of life involves how you react to what it does to you *************************************************** 3- THE SCULPTOR'S ATTITUDE I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important. My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have. Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or ...I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free. Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or ...I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste. Today I can grumble about my health or ...I can rejoice that I am alive. Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or ...I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born. Today I can cry because roses have thorns or...I can celebrate that thorns have roses. Today I can mourn my lack of friends or...I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships. Today I can whine because I have to go to work or...I can shout for joy because I have a job to do. Today I can complain because I have to go to school or...eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge. Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feel honored because the Lord has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul. Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping. What today will be like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day I will have! Have a GREAT DAY ... unless you have other plans. - Author Unknown - I'm going to sleep for a few days....Thanks everyone for the PM's!! wb
