Quote From Mother Teresa

Very cool.

Cool Quotes

I have two new quotes I heard that I loved! More to share soon:).

"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain." (no attribution that I can find, please let me know if you have one.)

"The Lord told me to serve people and He never told me to stop." - a farmer interviewd on ABC Nightly News. He grows healthy food for those who can't afford it.

Happy Friday!

Another Cool One...

I was reading a book by Amy Grant about her songs and her inspiration for writing them. I thought this quote was very cool
Nothing is wasted in life. Grief and pain enlarge our capacity for compassion and perseverance.
Isn't that the truth?

Open Minds



I'm a sucker for good quotes and when I find ones I really like, I like to share them. I get a quote of the day on my google home page from C.S. Lewis and Albert Einstein. This one appeared today and I just loved it. What a great distinction he makes.

An open mind, in questions that are not ultimate, is useful. But an open mind about the ultimate foundations either of Theoretical or of Practical Reason is idiocy.
~ C.S. Lewis
Interesting....

Or as my dad always put it "Keep an open mind in life, but don't let your mind be so open your brain leaks out." I don't really want my brain leaking out so I think about that one on a regular basis (Yes dad, I did listen once in awhile when you gave advice;).
