Trying to keep with it.

Posted by Marie Winters Adams at 4:05 PM

The 2011 Ephrata Canal Caper..............Yes, I did it this year!
I felt better about it then I have in years past. My time was better, too. Maybe all those years of trying to pretend I'm a runner is paying off!
I don't know, tho.
It has been a week and a half since the Canal Caper and I've only walked/jogged twice.
I did go to Idaho Falls to see the grandkids last week and was driving a lot (so that's a good excuse, isn't it??)
And today I went to Wenatchee to walk, but it was raining a little. I just couldn't get in to it. So I just walked for an hour and then went shopping in my sweats. I know, I know......lame.

I just picked the wrong day. Yesterday was sunny and beautiful, but today...........overcast, wet, and cold.

This is a pic from Miami in January that I forgot I had. I'm sure having the hardest time getting the pics off of my I-phone to my computer. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I've tried just about everything. Oh, well........life goes on.......gotta go make dinner.

To laugh often and love much

To laugh often and love much--
To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children--
To earn the honest approbation of critics and endure the betrayal of false friends--
To appreciate the beauty --
To find the best in others--
To give of one's self--
To leave the world a little better whether by a garden patch...a healthy child...or a redeemed social condition--
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sang with exultation--
To know even one life has breathed a little easier, because you have lived--
this is success.

Marianne Williamson

I'm a fan of Marianne Williamson. Here's a quote from her:

Regardless of how dark things get, there is light that will ultimately follow the darkness. For that is guaranteed by God. What lies in our hands -- what is completely up to us as beings of free will -- is how long the night will last and how quickly the light will get here. Many people on this earth have cast great light, and now is a moment when all of us must. At a time of war, let's cultivate peace. At a time of hate, let's cultivate love. At a time of hopelessness, let's cultivate hope.
