It is always wise to look
ahead,
but difficult to look
farther than you can see.
~ Winston
Churchill
Too
often our help remains somewhere
between
our minds and our hands.
~
Henri Nouwen
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts
I want to think,
all the walks I want to take,
all the books I want to
read,
and all the friends I
want to
see.

Those are a success who have lived
well, laughed often,
and loved
much; who have gained the respect of intelligent
people and the love of children, who have filled their niche
and accomplished their task, who leave the world better
than they found it, whether by a perfect poem or a rescued
soul; who never lacked appreciation of the earth's beauty
or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others
and gave the best they had.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
