A Parting Thought

"When I am gone, my love, do not look for me in the places we used to go to together.  Look for me in the places we always planned to go to together."

Penultimate Thoughts

Tongue in cheek

"Did you hear?  The Girl Scouts have announced that the entire proceeds of this year's cookie sale will be donated to the wealthy to create jobs."


"A paranoid thinks that sinister forces are out to get him, not realizing that they are out to get everybody."


"I hope for the best, since hoping for less doesn't seem to improve the results any."



Astutely observed

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a raise."


"I don't know if people with lots of material things are the happiest, but they sure put on the best yard sales."


"You find that everything seems a little more possible at the end of a brisk three-mile walk."



Getting serious

"They told me the universe was uncaring, and so I stole from it every bit of happiness I could, and I discovered they were right --  it didn't care."


"If indeed the death of a child is part of a larger plan, you wonder if God ever considered a smaller plan."


"It is not necessary to be strong in every place if in the place you are vulnerable, you are loved."

My Week on Twitter -- February 6

This week's most favored tweets.

"Better you don't search for who you are until you know who it is you want to find."


"Sometimes you believe a thing that isn't true because in the world you wish to live in, it would be true."



The runners-up

"It is not until you subject your beliefs to compromise that you know what your principles are."


"You think you will never love again, until one day you meet someone who thinks they will never be loved again."



Best of the rest

"Nothing brings people together like having the same deck stacked against them."


"If you set yourself standards that can only be met with God's help, then why would you not ask God's help?"


"Maybe there's life on other planets but we don't recognize it because it's fair."


"I identify more with people who ask each day for divine guidance than people equipped with a divine guidance system."


"In the end you regret less the things you believed that weren't true than the things that never came true because you didn't believe."
