Rosemary's Story
Rosemary's schools include Hialeah-Miami Lakes High School.
One of Rosemary's favorite quotes is:"âThe Winds of Fateâ
One ship drives east and another drives west
With the self-same winds that blow;
âTis the set of the sails
And not the galesâ
That tells them the way to go.
Like the winds of the sea are the âwinds of fateâ
As we voyage along through life;
âTis the set of the soul
That decides its goalâ
And not the calm or the strife.
-Ella Wheeler Wilcox
âThat which we love above all things is the purpose we regard in everything we do. This is in our will like the imperceptible current of a river which carries us along even when we are thinking of other things.â â Emanuel Swedenborg
Reliable signals of maturity in a person:
Perseverance, reliability, tolerance, patience, adaptability, practice of giving more than of asking for himself, endurance of difficulties uncomplaining when it is necessary, ability to recognize a clearly hopeless situation and to refrain from trying to alter it. â a note found in Lanceâs papers, author unknown.
âAll of us are standing on the banks of the river; and if we wish to influence history, we must step down from the bank and stand in the middle of the stream in order to change the direction of the current.â - Herodot...Expand for more

âThe inmost of the masculine is love, and its covering is wisdom, but the inmost of the feminine is wisdom, and its covering is love.â - Emanuel Swedenborg
âWhat is most beautiful in virile men is something feminine; what is most beautiful in feminine women is something masculine. â Susan Sontag
Praise and blame,
Gain and loss,
Pleasure and sorrow
Come and go
Like the wind.
To be happy,
Rest like a giant tree
In the midst of them all. â Buddha
Elegance â of mind as much as of appearance â implies intelligence, certainty of taste, a balanced and centered identity.â - Liz Tilberis
My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute. â Ayn Rand
Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesnât matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle.
When the sun come up, you better start running. âAfrican proverb (or how to survive in NYC)
Some people dream of successâ¦while others wake up and work hard at it. â from a corny poster".
