Dec.1/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 371
"A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths; feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit; recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities."~William Arthur Ward
My Add:
Yuppers... "true friends" are the best in the world! To think and act like one isn't as hard as some may think, and to have one is all one really needs. To have several is a blessing! The love shared can live in our hearts, like the brilliance of the sun warming our planet on a hot summer day! Just the thought of it, leaves me "thirsty" for more!!! HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY!!! (^^^)

Dec.2/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 372
"That which the dream shows is the shadow of such wisdom as exists in man, even if during his waking state he may know nothing about it... We do not know it because we are fooling away our time with outward and perishing things, and are asleep in regard to that which is real within ourself."~Philipus Aureolus Paracelsus (1493 - 1541)
My Add:
Time to awaken our inner wisdom and realize our potentials! After all they say "there's no time like the present"... and every day we "carry on" IS a present! WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)
+++
Dec.5/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 373
"Of all the self-fulfilling prophecies in our culture, the assumption that aging means decline and poor health is probably the deadliest."~Marilyn Ferguson, The Aquarian Conspiracy, 1980
My Add:
BEWARE of the negatives; but also remember there is a positive side as well. Aging brings forth knowledge, experience, and wisdom to be gained. So go forth with an open mind & heart... you never know where it may lead! (*@^@*)

Dec.6/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 374
"Health is not valued till sickness comes."~Dr. Thomas Fuller (1654 - 1734), Gnomologia, 1732
My Add:
Cold season is upon us... let's not forget to EAT, & get plenty of rest. (^^^)
+++
Dec.8/11 Inspiration in the Morning (late)... 375
I care for riches, to make gifts
To friends, or lead a sick man back to health
With ease and plenty. Else small aid is wealth
For daily gladness; once a man be done
With hunger, rich and poor are all as one."~Euripides (484 BC - 406 BC), Electra, 413 B.C.
My Add:
Need I say more? Leaving me "thirsty" for more!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.9/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 376
"It was once said that the moral test of Government is how that Government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped."~Hubert H. Humphrey (1911 - 1978)
My Add:
Is this not the moral test of us ALL???
Dedicated to a HEROINE among us! You are AMAZING Melissa... I hope you NEVER change, and never wear yourself out. May LOVE, optimism, and good karma always be by your side!!! LOVE in friendship ALWAYS!!! Wild Wicked Weekend Wishes!!! (*@^@*)

Dec.12/11 Theme week once again... (^^^)
Inspiration in the Morning 377
"We have to have the money to do the work we want to do, as well as to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. Fat commissions are good, but not always easy to come by, and each new painting takes its time. So we need to find every way possible to earn extra income from our work."~Elizabeth Aston, The True Darcy Spirit, 2006
My Add:
A question that comes to mind... How many ways can we earn "extra" (being beyond any original sale idea) income for any given item? Anything come to your mind? Ideas, ideas, ideas... BRING THEM ON!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.13/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 378
"I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time."~Orson Welles (1915 - 1985)
My Add:
If this was not true for most of us artists, then progression would be deprived! Taking away many future "projects", and much variety. And without variety... Life would lose a lot of interests/ inspirations. So HERE'S to NOT "fitting in/ being with it"!!! CHEERS to those of us this "suits"!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.15/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 379
"Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty- five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things."~Douglas Adams (1952 - 2001), The Salmon of Doubt
My Add: That was how things USE to be. In today's society we have moved away from the "career" years, and moved into the "freelancer no matter what you do" years. Now starting into any business, is more of a "Le Challenge" than ever before - no matter what age. So go forth with an open mind, heart, & courage my friends... for only our efforts & time will tell our outcomes.
HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.16/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 380
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science."~Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
My Add:
Mystery is around every unknown corner, and art and science live in the hearts of each of us. With an open heart & mind, we can recognize it, appreciate it, and create it. WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.19/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 381
"A good conscience is a continual Christmas."~Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)
My Add:
EXACTLY!!! We all "have it in us" to give of ourselves... The "spirit" of Christmas should be within us ALL year round! There's ALWAYS a way we can "make a difference" in someone's life... we just need to know where to go & what we can do to help. (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.20/11 Inspiration in the Morning 382
"Aren't we forgeting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa."~Matt Groening (1954 - ), The Simpsons
My Add: Did you know it was all inspired by a poem and a caricaturist and political cartoonist back in 1823? Spreading the LOVE!!! (^^^)
RE: Santa Claus... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus
RE: Krampus... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krampus
+++
Dec.21/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 383
"Christmas is a holiday that persecutes the lonely, the frayed, and the rejected."~Jimmy Cannon
My Add:
EXACTLY the reason why GIVING of ourselves is sooo needed, not JUST during Christmas season, but all year long!!! There's sooo many ways we can help. And there's "no time like the present", to give the gift of ourselves to those in need. HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)

Dec.22/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 384
"A turkey never voted for an early Christmas."~Irish Proverb
My Add:
We wouldn't either, if we knew we were to be dinner! Objectively speaking, the turkeys would dread the day all year long... poor turkeys.
HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Dec.23/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 385
"I'm glad that life isn't like a Christmas song, because if my friends and I were building a snowman and it suddenly came alive when we put a hat on it, I'd probably freak and stab it to death with an icicle."~Matthew Perry
My Add:
With our "time of giving" (of ourselves) drawing to a close for this seasonal holiday, it's also now time to "FREAK OUT"... lol No "Frosty" didn't come to life in my yard, but X-mas is only 2 SLEEPS away!!! Are YOU ready???
WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES & HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! (*@^@*)

Dec.26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 386
"Relationships of trust depend on our willingness to look not only to our own interests, but also the interests of others."~Peter Farquharson
My Add:
This is just as true with being a parent, as it is in romantic relationships. Either way, we must trust ourselves and know that we are doing our best to look out for those we love. After all anything in Life that matters may not always be easy, but we keep on trying." (^^^)
+++
Dec.27/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 387
"Some relationships start with fights... But, usually only in romantic comedies. Life's not the movies."~Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata, Animal Crossing: Wild World, 2005
My Add:
And Love is worth more than bothering to fight, but we all do it from time to time. And it can be the "relationship killer" if we are not careful with our words, the way things are said, etc... Let's try to refrain from such things, and just HUG when we feel those thoughts "creeping up" on us. Spreading the LOVE is MUCH BETTER, and can help ourselves & others to feel less stress during such times. (^^^)
+++
Dec.28/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 388
"You will never truly know yourself or the strength of your relationships until both have been tested by adversity."~J. K. Rowling, Harvard Commencement Address, 2008
My Add:
No relationship is perfect, and when it comes to Love & trust; both must survive the test of time. There's a couple of sayings that comes to mind/ goes along with this... "If you Love someone, let them go. If they come back, it's meant to be.", & "what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger.". HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
+++
Dec.29/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 389
"Assumptions are the termites of relationships."~Henry Winkler (1945 - )
My Add:
When assumptions come into play, we need to listen to reason and all the facts before decisions are made. Otherwise, aren't we just "giving in" to rumors or possibly false thoughts? Being truthful & fair to ourselves and our partners, is the only way to "see through the fog" and see things for how they truly are. HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY!!! (^^^)
+++
Dec.30/11 Inspiration in the Morning 390...
"Assumptions are the termites of relationships."~Henry Winkler (1945 - )
My Add:
We all know the old saying... "To assume makes an ass out of u and me". Without an open heart & mind, difficulties will arise while discussing anything that could be assumed - to be clarified/ understood/ accepted. Let's stick to the "facts", and stay patient and open in the new year. (^^^)
