If we make our goal to live a life of compassion and unconditional love, then the world will indeed become a garden where all kinds of flowers can bloom and grow. | |
— Daphne Rose Kingma | |
Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive. | |
— Elbert Hubbard | |
I am not what I ought to be. I am not what I want to be. I am not what I hope to be. But still, I am not what I used to be. And by the grace of God, I am what I am. | |
— John Newton | |

Hi Gina,
Belated or not, your wishes (and thanks) are well received.
And, I (in turn) very much enjoy visiting your site.
Two more quotes for you:
