Light

There's a crack in everything----that's where the light gets in!
A broken heart can lead to a bigger heart.  Light causes the expansion.

You can't push out the darkness....you can only bring in the light.

Children

There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children.
---Nelson  Mandela

Smiles

Smile at yourself in the mirror each morning because the first person you see each day should be happy to see you!

While there is still hope

Correct your children while there is still hope; do not let them destroy themselves.

Proverbs19:18

If a child is given love,
he becomes loving.....
If he's helped when he needs it,
he becomes helpful.
And if he has been truly
valued at home...he grows
up secure enough to look beyond
himself to the welfare of others.

I win!

I win every argument with my husband.  If my husband and I argue, I always make sure I have the last word---even if he isn't in the room!                                                         

I AM

I am not just what I remember. I am also what I dream.

"Escape from Memory" by Margaret Haddix  p.227

Life is short

There comes a time in life when you have to walk away from all the drama and the people who create it.  You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good.  Love the people who treat you right and pray for the ones who don't.  Life is too short to be anything but happy!
