Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies. ~Aristotle



Attitudes are contagious. Are yours worth catching? ~Dennis and Wendy Mannering



It's so hard when I have to, and so easy when I want to. ~Annie Gottlier



We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have. ~Frederick Keonig



A smile is the light in the window of your face that tells people you're at home. ~Author Unknown

I loved the brilliant fall picture. I think about the quotes you deliver each day. I was interested in the one about happiness is appreciating what you have rather than wanting something someone else has. That is something a person who has tells someone who doesn't have to make himself feel better about his disadvantage. This is complicated. Churches and the wealthy have said these things for generations and why ?

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
