    Yes, thank you Glenna.  I should print it out, make lots of copies and tape them all around my house.

    My favourite (serious) quote:

    "Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all." Emily Dickinson

    Take care of your friends, because there will come a time when you're not much fun to be with and there is no reason to like you
    except out of long standing habit. Garrison Keillor

    This one gave me quite a laugh but also a gentle reminder of the importance of actively valuing my friends. I have so many here at BCO and have missed being able to post more. I have to admit, Ebru: "Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity" is a great quote. Thanks for sharing it, and thanks to all others who take the time to offer words that inspire thoughtfulness, gratitude, hope, laughter, insight, etc, through this thread.

    thanks, Brenda, sometimes I feel I am taken for granted but if I turn it around, there are definitely people in my life that I take for granted. Need to remember to nurture those relationships and remember that I am not the only one with problems!

    Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak.

    Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

    New to this topic--have just read through all of it! So much wisdom and humor.

    One of my favorites is from Julian of Norwich.
