IF THE ONLY PRAYER YOU SAID IN YOUR LIFE WAS "THANK YOU", THAT WOULD SUFFICE. ~Meister Eckhart

To achieve, develop a vision so positive, meaningful and compelling that you simply cannot sit still. Then get up, go out and delight in creating your own special greatness for the world. -- Ralph Marston

There is only one corner of the universe I can be certain of improving, and that's my own self.

Today I am grateful...
  • for prayers for my sister as she has her angiogram this morning and possible minor surgery to correct a blockage
  • that I pretty much have the choice as to how my day will proceed
  • that one bad behavioral incident yesterday doesn't have to be repeated. Why does driving bring up the worst in me sometimes? Arrgghhhhh
  • for 660 days of sobriety from alcohol and 70 days as a non-smoker. I am astonished at both these numbers!
  • for the increasingly playful moods Randall has been having
