A few quotes mixed in with random thoughts today
There is a time for everything - Thomas Edison
Indeed there is a time for everything. Most people aren't patient enough for that, myself included.
Happiness and love are just a choice away - Leo Buscaglia
So true. Most people are however afraid to take the leap though. Rejection, low self esteem, fear of knowing, etc. all these things hold people back. My biggest issue with making the leap is self esteem and fear of getting hurt. Not so much the rejection because that wouldn't bother me much.. it's the whole falling for someone and getting involved with them and the possibility of that being yanked out from under me should they find someone else. I guess that ties in to the self esteem eh? I'd almost rather ride an elevator up a skyscraper... and I hate small enclosed spaces and heights! I'm gradually getting over the fear of relationships and such.. it's going to take sometime though.
True happiness is not gained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose - Helen Keller
Think about that.. and let it soak in. Nothing wrong with spoiling one's self from time to time, but there are things in life which make you feel accomplished, happy, and good that shouldn't be overlooked.
Finally joined the 21st century and got an MP3 player. Been having fun trying to figure out how to get the Itunes music onto it. What a pain in the rear. It's kind of nice though, I can store different cd's on it.. don't have to keep changing cd's and so forth. I think for Christmas I'm going to get the kids one of their own and fill it with music they like.
I'm thinking I may need to extend my visit to Chicago from 3-4 days to 6-7 days. So much I want to see while I'm there! I get more and more excited about this as the days go on.. :)
