Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses. - Confucius



Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors. -African proverb



Youth is wasted on the young -George Bernard Shaw



I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody. -Bill Cosby



If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down. -Mary Pickford



Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it. - Confucius

Mary Pickford's quote is the one I like best tonight. Though of course they are all always good.
I love that tree with the Shaw quote too. It looks really neat enlarged.
Have a wonderful evening Sylvia!

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.
