Peaceful Moments

My Favorite Quote About Life

happiness is a journey, not a destination...
for a long time it seemed to me
that life was about to begin --real life,
but there was always some obstacle in the way,
something to be gotten through first,
some unfinished business,
time still to be served, a debt to be paid.
at last it dawned on me
that these obstacles were my life.
this perspective has helped me to see
there is no way to happiness.
happiness is the way.
so treasure every moment you have
and remember that time waits for no one.

Mother's Day is in just a few days. I have dreaded this day longer than any other -- my friend Vicki and I are going through our first mothers day without ours, its hard to celebrate -- so I am trying to take the focus off of this day because I don't want my girls to feel this way when when it's their turn to go through this; one day I won't be here. We are having a nice dinner on Saturday -- family time-- and I'm going to brunch with a friend on Sunday, she and I can talk about our mothers and cry if we want to and we will be ok.
