For Wonderful Women in My Life:
Let's Wear Purple Hats for Women's Month!!

In honor of women's history month and in memory of Erma Bombeck who lost her fight with cancer.
Here is an angel sent to watch over you. Pass this on to five women that you want watched over.
If you don't know five women to pass this on to, one will do just fine.

IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER - by Erma Bombeck
(written after she found out she was dying from cancer)

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending
the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried
much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day
because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and more while watching life.

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical,
wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized
that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said,
"Later. Now go get washed up for dinner."
There would have been more "I love you's." More "I'm sorry's."

But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute ...
... look at it and really see it ... live it ... and never give it back. Stop sweating the small stuff.

Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what.

Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.

Let's think about what God HAS blessed us with.
And what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally.
I hope you all have a blessed day.

"Verjeli smo, da je nas edini sovraznik clovek, ki ga ne poznamo. Delaj z njim, pogovarjaj se z njim, spoznaj ga in sovraznik bo izginil."

The best way to keep good acts in memory is to refresh them with new.

I tell people: If you don't want to get into positive thinking, that's OK.
Just eliminate all the negative thoughts from your mind, and whatever's left will be fine.

Bob Rotella, Sports psychologist

People often say that this person or that person has not yet found himself.
But the self is not something that one finds. It is something that one creates.

Thomas Szasz, Psychiatrist


Our small efforts at kindness
can change people's lives more than we will ever know.
Since it takes so little time and energy to change the world for the better,
why not make an effort to do it every day?

Pat Williams, Basketball executive

          Zravnaj ramena proti svetu, ne obupat.
         Ni breme tisto, ki te zlomi , ampak način ,
                            kako ga nosiš.

Je rekel en enkrat:

"A ne bi bilo življenje lepše, če bi se začelo s smrtjo in končalo z orgazmom."

Odlomek iz knjge Rožnati slonček

Sova Modrijanka je prisluhnila slončkovim težavam. Nekaj časa je razmišljala , nato je nagnila glavo postrani in rekla;
tri stari lahko narediš.
Prvič ; da jokaš , ko si žalosten , , ne glede na to , kaj bodo rekli drugi. Z jokom je namreč tako kot z velikim deževnim oblakom , ki je po dežju spet lahek in svetel.
Drugič; z nekom , ki ga imaš rad , se pogovori o svojih težavah.
In tretjič; prijatelju poišči poseben prostor v svojem srcu , tako se ga boš spominjal in bo večno pri tebi.

In še nekaj je dodala Modrijanka; pomagal ti bo čas. Tvoja bolečina bo vse manjša , ko bo mineval čas....
