Just living is not enough...

one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.

-Hans Christian Anderson-

"When you remember me, it means you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on you.  It means that you can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us.  It means that if we meet again, you will know me.  It means that even after I die, you can still see my face and hear my voice and speak to me in your heart."

-Frederick Buechner-

"There is nothing that art cannot exposes."

-Oscar Wilde-

"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are.  Let me learn from you, bless you before you depart.  Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow."

-Mary Jean Irion-

"People are like bicycles.

They can keep their balance only as long as they keep moving."

Albert Einstein,
