Anybody can become angry - that is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy.
My hope is to learn this and understand it so that my anger becomes healthy and hopefully one day, gone. |

(For K)
"It seems to me that trying to live without friends is like milking a bear to get cream for your morning coffee. It is a whole lot of trouble, and then not worth much after you get it." ~Zora Neale Hurston (For me) "Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?" ~Author Unknown "May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand." ~Irish Blessing "The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected." ~Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook "A man never knows how to say goodbye; a woman never knows when to say it." ~Helen Rowland "Fare thee well! and if for ever, Still for ever, fare thee well." ~Lord Byron Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened. ~Theodor Seuss Geisel, attributed |

Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joys, and dividing our grief
--Joseph Addison The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship. --Ralph Waldo Emerson We enjoy warmth because we have been cold. We appreciate light because we have been in darkness. By the same token, we can experience joy because we have known sadness. --David Weatherford |

“The best doctor in the world is a veterinarian. He can't ask his patients what is the matter -- he's got to just know.” ~Will Rodgers
“A doctor can bury his mistakes but an architect can only advise his clients to plant vines.” ~Frank Lloyd Wright “Just because your doctor has a name for your condition doesn't mean he knows what it is” Grrr... Can you tell I loathe doctors today?? |

So... I had to actually "pick" my name when I was in 3rd grade... as my teachers couldn't say my real name (I'm one of dem forners). So I picked my first name.
Then, another kid in my class (another wonuvdem forners) had the same name as me... so I had to pick a middle name so school records wouldn't confuse us. ... I picked a letter. Literally. My name is Sneezy B. Fun (not really, but you get the picture). |

Today, my dear friends, I share my quotes with K. I believe we are on the same page today... a page of beginnings. Looking at the future, this new, unwritten chapter, this mysterious unknown. Last night I couldn't get this one phrase out of my head "The Land of Beginning Again" - from a poem I read a while back.... The Land of Beginning
“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.” ~ Seneca “What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.” ~T.S. Elliot ""There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning." ~Louis L'Amour ""Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." ~Martin Luther King, Jr. A beginning does not always mean an ending; sometimes it simply means a re-focus, a new attempt at balance, an unwritten chapter. ~HistorianChick |

"Father forgive them for they know not what they do" - Our Lord
I hope you all don't mind me throwing that one in. But it's a nice reminder to me that if Our Lord could have forgiven,especially during the time that he said that, shame on me for not doing the same if far less difficult circumstances. May all of you have a beautiful day. |

At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities. ~Jean Houston
Laughter is an instant vacation. ~Milton Berle Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine. ~Anthony J. D'Angelo, The College Blue Book In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer. ~Albert Camus, Lyrical and Critical Essays |

I'm in a Charles Bukowski mood today….enjoy!
“Some people never go crazy, What truly horrible lives they must live” “Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them.” “Sex is interesting, but it's not totally important. I mean it's not even as important as excretion. A man can go seventy years without a piece of a$$, but he can die in a week without a bowel movement.” “Sometimes you just have to pee in the sink.” “There is a time to stop reading, there is a time to STOP trying to WRITE, there is a time to kick the whole bloated sensation of ART out on its whore-a$$.” “Well, people got attached. Once you cut the umbilical cord they attached to the other things. Sight, sound, sex, money, mirages, mothers, masturbation, murder, and Monday morning hangovers.” |
