A day of reflection....

Only one day off again this week, so I had a nice relaxing day doing yardwork and reading....and maybe a little daydreaming too! Since it's my day off, instead of writing my own thoughts.....I'm gonna cheat and write some of my favorite thoughts of others. Here's what I've been thinking about this weekend....

Money often costs too much.
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)

Real generosity toward the future consists in giving all to what is present.
(Albert Camus)

For one who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends. But for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be his greatest enemy.
(The Bhagavad-Gita)

A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs - jolted by every pebble in the road.
(Henry Ward Beecher)

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship.
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)

And last but certainly not least.....

Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
