Each day is a new day
By: Abraham J. Twerski, M.D.

There is probably nothing as destructive to a marriage, or for that matter, to all family relationships, as allowing oneself to become bored with other family members.

Wonder All Around

Have you ever gotten a postcard from a place so beautiful that you stopped to imagine what living in a place like that must be like?

Crossroads

Sometimes, when I look back and think of all the
could-have-beens in my life, 

I often wonder:
Did I make the right choice....
Did I miss a road sign....
Am I on the right track.... 

C R O S S R O A D S.....
They happen all the time,
Saying goodbye to some,
Choosing only one.
Letting go, holding on... settling for now,
But facing what must come.... 

Yes, in life we all reach a crossroad sometime.
We make painful decisions and take some risks
as we pursue our dreams. 

But one should not stay at the CROSSROADS too long.
For even the birds have to leave their nests sometime
& learn how to fly. 

Life's road is long & rough, and there are stretches
when one has to do it all alone. 

And should you meet the cross at the road, be consoled. 

Yes, more often than not, the road less traveled
will surely bring you home. 

Face the light and the shadow falls behind you.
Turn your back & the shadow stays in front of you. 

Indeed, the truth hurts,
but it will surely set you free.
The bitter pangs of parting will give birth to
another moment called GROWING. 

So grow on..... until it's time for you to move
on.... and face the crossroads again,
knowing that God loves you and is in control of
everything. 

Be strong at the crossroads. 

Embrace the CROSS at the ROAD.
The Lord is at the cross, at the road,
at all your CROSSROADS......

Packing Parachutes - By Charlie Plumb

Recently, I was sitting in a restaurant in Kansas City. A man about two tables away kept looking at me. I didn't recognize him. A few minutes into our meal he stood up and walked over to my table, looked down at me, pointed his finger in my face and said, "You're Captain Plumb."

Quote as Garnish:

It is easier to accept the message of the stars than the message of the salt desert. The stars speak of man's insignificance in the long eternity of time; the deserts speak of his insignificance right now.
