Ah, life…

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

It happens. Wouldn’t life be nice if we all lived a little every day?

I was emailed this quote today…I love it:

“If the future road looks ominous or unpromising, and the roads back uninviting, then we need to rather our resolve and, carrying only the necessary baggage, step off that road into another direction.”

–Maya Angelou

Perfect, right? I absolutely love Maya Angelou, she is such an inspiring and amazing woman. You can always count on a good quote from her!

Makes me feel like I need to make some changes. “Step off in another direction”…I’ve been over-extending myself…or maybe I just need to change my “attitude” about all that I have (and want) to accomplish. It seems that I am running in circles lately…I do so like to stress myself out.

In reality I really do have such a blessed life. I’m taking a deep breath as I type this blog entry….ahhhhh….much better.

If you’ve been reading my blog you know that I love “little details”…I’ve even made a side bar page dedicated to them. I thought I’d post some more details tonight…they’re all from the Vintage Sweetheart book I posted a couple of days ago.

I am still working on getting all of my old photos back up from being “hacked”….if the photos you’re looking for aren’t working…try back a little later. I promise I’ll get them all back up for you!

Oh…and pat yourself on the back, you and I made it through “hump day” (sigh). It’s smooth sailing into the weekend from here on out!

Love is all that matters

Love is everything

It’s the sharing of songs and of silences

and the holding of memories only the heart can see

In nothing are we as rich as in our memories of love

For they are ours alone and tell our story

Love’s music may be different to each of us,

But oh, how beautiful the dance
