One of Lesly's favorite quotes is:"...Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of danger. If someone betrays you once, it is his fault; if he betrays you twice it is your fault. Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people. He who loses money, loses much; he who loses a friend, loses much more; he who loses faith, loses all. Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art. Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make all of them yourself. Friends...you and me...you brought another friend...and then there were three...we started our group...our circle of friends...and like that circle...there is no beginning or end...yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift, that's why they call it the present.
--Eleanor Roosevelt
...To gaze into another persons eyes is to do two things: to recognize his humanity and to assert your own...
...Success is a ladder that cannot be climbed with your hands in your pockets...
...It is fairly easy to think outside the box when you haven't learned that the the box exists yet... Shafa Wale
...Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want...
...Things change. They always have changed and always will change. And while there's no single way to deal with change, the consequence of pretending change won't happen is always the same: The cheese runs out. --Lou Schuler
...plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers...
...A wise man knows his enemies and keeps them close....
...Stupid is, as Stupid does...
'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on,...Expand for more
and it will be better tomorrow.'
'I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things:
a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.'
'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.'
'I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life.'
'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.'
'I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back...'
'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.'
'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.'
'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back...'
'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.'
'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.' MAYA ANGELOU
...Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
MARK TWAIN".

-Soren Kierkegaard
I love roasted marshmallows, maple walnut ice cream, and cold pizza; Ask me anything about Pennsylvania and I will instantly smile; If you are from Pennsylvania, you are instantly my friend; I love my dogs, Marley and Muligan; I love to sleep on white sheets; I love the smell of lavender, fresh cut grass, and Noxema; I love the fact that my four kids enjoy one another’s company and make each other laugh often; I love to watch a movie on an airplane; I love everything Italian…especially red wine; I love my friend, Jane’s, roasted potatoes; I have a bucket list; I love to wear perfume but hate to wear lipstick; My friend, Michele, makes me laugh the hardest; I have wonderful “old” friends; I would like to live abroad for a year; I never throw away a book that I have read ---I love being surrounded by books; I love to watch 60 Minutes; I love to see the American flag blowing in the wind—the bigger the flag the better; I am deathly afraid of rats; Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday; I am passionate about art and thoughtful handcrafted design; I love movies that keep my mind thinking; random acts of kindness make my heart soar".
