"Living Life" by Bonnie Mohr

Life is not a race - but indeed a journey.  Be honest.  Work hard.  Be choosy.  Say "thank you", "I love you", and "great job" to someone everyday.  Go to church, take time for prayer.  The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh.  Let your handshake mean more than pen and paper.  Love your life and what you've been given, it is not accidential - search for your purpose and do it as best you can.  Dreaming does matter.  It allows you to become that which you aspire to be.  Laugh often.  Appreciate the little things in life and enjoy them.  Some of the best things really are free.  Do not worry, less wrinkles are more becoming.  Forgive, it frees the soul.  Take time for yourself - plan for longgevity.  Recognize the special people you've been blessed to know.  Live for today, enjoy the moment.

Five Things
1.  I love it when the sky is deep blue and the clouds are snowy white.  Beautiful!
2.  I don't hang my hand or foot over the bed at night.
3.  I hate beets.  Yuck!!!
4.  I like movies with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.
5.  I love my family.

"It is never too late to be what you might have been."

I started reading this great book today.  A Garden in Paris by Stephanie Grace Whitson.  I was blown away by the first couple of pages because it parallels my life these days.  I'm not married to a rich man and I have have never been in love with a man from France but for the past year I've been writing a book about a fifty six  year old widow that has always lived her life with and for her family.  Now she's ready to start life anew.  She moves to France and discovers who she really is and what she wants to do with the rest of her life.
To quote George Eliot "It is never too late to be what you might have been."
