"We met it seems, such a short time ago. You looked at me, needing me so. Yet from your sadness, our happiness grew. Then I found out, I need you, too. I remember how we used to play. I recall those rainy days, the fires glowed, that kept us warm. And now I find, we're both alone. Goodbye may seem forever, farewell is like the end. But in my heart's a memory, and there you'll always be." The Fox and The Hound

DON’T QUIT
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and its turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When they might have won, had they stuck it out,
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late, when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit,
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit!

If you were raised on bologna, PB&J, hot dogs, grilled cheese , beans and weiners,kraft dinner, played in the dirt, had 3 TV channels, school started with "The Pledge," had a bedtime, rode in back of pickup trucks, recorded the top 40 from the radio on cassette tapes, drank from a hose, rode your bike all day, actually talked face to face to friends & played outside ...and you still turned out OK. REPOST ♥
----------
I hope you find the person who makes you smile ...
There are times when you miss someone so much that you want to remove it from your dreams and hug with all your strength.
I hope you dream of that special someone ...
...
Dream what you want to dream,
Go where you want to go
I know what I want to be,
Because you have only one life and one chance to do whatever you want to do.

♥ A mom thinks about her kids, even if they're not with her.
♥ A mom loves her kids in a way that they will never understand.
♥ A mom will be there for her kids when no one else will.
♥ A mom will catch a grenade, take a bullet, stand in front of a train, & ask God to take her instead of her child.
♥If you have children that you love as much as I love mine, post this as your status

AFFIRMATION
Today, I give up the habit of putting myself down.
I boldly declare that I matter.
My thoughts, opinions, and feelings matter.
I honor and respect the unique and beautiful person that I am.
I have value.; I have worth.
I am a precious and unique expression of the Divine.
I no longer put my needs at the bottom of my list.
Instead, I show love, kindness, and appreciation to myself by honoring my heart's tender voice which gently guides me to my highest good and to the highest good of all around me.
My soul is overflowing with pure and brilliant love.
------------
The most beautiful people we have known
are those who have known defeat,
known suffering, known struggle,
known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.
These persons have an appreciation,
a sensitivity, and an understanding
of life that fills them with compassion,
gentleness, and a deep loving concern.
Beautiful people...Expand for more
do not just happen,
They are made.

Charlie Brown: Thanks for the Christmas card you sent me, Violet.
Violet: I didn't send you a Christmas card, Charlie Brown.
Charlie Brown: Don't you know sarcasm when you hear it?
_______
Charlie Brown: [Yells into mailbox] Hello in there.
[looks away and soon begins to walk]
Charlie Brown: Rats. Nobody sent me a Christmas card today. I almost wish there weren't a holiday season. I know nobody likes me. Why do we have to have a holiday season to emphasize it?

Linus Van Pelt: "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not: for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'"
[Linus picks up his blanket and walks back towards Charlie Brown]
Linus Van Pelt: That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.

"Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that all was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, and make it possible."

favorite bill cosby quotes:
1) Always end the name of your child with a vowel, so that when you yell the name will carry.
2) Decide that you want it more than you are afraid of it.
3) In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
4) The past is a ghost, the future a dream, and all we ever have is now.
5) There is hope for the future because God has a sense of humor and we are funny to God.
6) Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.
7) You can turn painful situations around through laughter. If you can find humor in anything, even poverty, you can survive it.
