NEW VOWS FOR MARRIAGE

Today I came  upon this quote, and thought to myself, this would make very good Marriage Vows.


"Two persons who have chosen each other out of all the species with a design to be each others mutual comfort and entertainment have, in this action, bound themselves to be good-humored, affable, discreet, forgiving, patient and joyful, with respect to each other's frailities and perfections to the end of their lives."
                                        -----Joseph Addison-----     (1672-1719)

Maybe we should look at commitment differently!

THIS IS IN POOR TASTE/BUT READ IT ANYWAY

Our world is a strange  place when people can comment on how things are, but it is freedom of speech that allows us to do this.  It is a sad commentary on our society, when we can poke fun at low wages and the ability for us to feed our families.

Unfortunately this link to a cartoon says it all.  Please take a look at it!

LIFE

LIFE'S JOURNEY

"We are not human beings on a spiritual journey.
We are spiritual beings on a human journey."
                    -----Stephen Covey-----



"As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed."
                                                  -----Vincent Van Gogh-----

FAITH

"I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IF YOU HAVE FAITH AS SMALL AS A MUSTARD SEED, YOU CAN SAY TO THIS MOUNTAIN "MOVE FROM HERE TO THERE" AND IT WILL MOVE.
NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO YOU."

BEING RICH

IMPORTANCE OF ATTITUDE

MAY 1st

MAY
---Sara Teasdale---

"The wind is tossing the lilacs.
 The new leaves laugh in the sun.
And the petals fall on the orchard wall,
But for me, the Spring is done.

Beneath the apple blossoms
I go a wintry way,
For love that smiled in April
Is false to me in May."
