Here is my recipe for a happy life; the ingredients are simple. First, know yourself; you'll always know what to do next when difficulties arise. Second, live in the present, savor every minute because time is what we have least of. Third, never stop learning. One of the surprises of growing older is that the mind doesn't. Fourth, stay as wonderful as you are!

Favorite Quotes
"Motherhood brings as much joy as ever, but it still brings boredom, exhaustion, and sorrow too. Nothing else ever will make you as happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, for nothing is quite as hard as helping a person develop his own individuality especially while you struggle to keep your own." --Marguerite Kelly & Elia Parsons
"However many years she lived she should never forget that first morning when her garden began to grow." Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden
