We cannot change yesterday, and we cannot predict tomorrow, but we can live today. So be alive. Never let one day pass by without a smile.

Life is a collection of memories so remember the past, live in the present, and welcome the future with open arms.

"Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal."....Inspirational Quotes by (Unknown)

Remember Me

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can go no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

"Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and blows up the bonfire." - Francois De la Rouchefoucauld. ♥

The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hand of God.

"Throw back the shoulders, let the heart sing, let the eyes flash, let the mind be lifted up, look upward and say to yourself... Nothing is impossible!"
~ Norman Vincent Peale

I Shall Be Glad Poet: Grace Noll Crowell

 If I can put new hope within the heart
Of one who has lost hope,
If I can help a brother up
Some difficult
long slope
That seems too steep for tired feet to go,
If I can help him climb
Into the light upon the hill's far crest,
I shall begrudge no time
Or strength that I spend,
For well I know
How great may be his need.
If I can help through any
Darkened hour, I shall be glad indeed.

For I recall how often I have been
Distressed, distraught, dismayed,
And hands have reached to help,
And voices called
That kept me unafraid.
If I can share this help that

I have had, God knows I shall be glad.

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

 Making memories with your children is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. I hope to leave my children with an abundant supply of them. We had quite the blizzard in WI last night, leaving us with plenty of snow to make some of these memories with our children ♥
