April 24, 2011 - Easter Sunday

Well I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and got some good rest and relaxation in.  Had a great weekend myself . . . worked in my shop and got to go to knitting group for a few hours this afternoon.  As an added bonus Saturday was gorgeous here on the Washington coast and we even hit temps near 60 degrees.  Today the rain we were supposed to get never materialized so we had another great day here.

Quotes

It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement. ~ Herman Hesse

Learning how to be kind to ourselves, learning how to respect ourselves, is important. The reason it's important is that, fundamentally, when we look into our own hearts and begin to discover what is confused and what is brilliant, what is bitter and what is sweet, it isn't just ourselves that we're discovering. We're discovering the universe. ~ Pema Chodron

For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. ~ Nelson Mandela

Quotes from other FB pages

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. ~ John Wooden Via ~ Positive Inspirational Quotes ( PIQ)

"If you try anything, if you try to lose weight, or to improve yourself, or to love, or to make the world a better place, you have already achieved something wonderful, before you even begin. Forget failure. If things don't work out the way you want, hold your head up high and be proud. And try again. And again. And again!" ~ Sarah Dessen ~ Via "gr8quotes"
