Thankful

There is always something for which to be thankful.

~Charles Dickens

Appearances are Deceiving

It matters not what’s on the outside…

It’s the inside that counts.

Beauty is not in the face;

Beauty is a light in the heart.

~ Khalil Gibran

Challenges Bring Opportunities

“The pessimist sees challenges in every opportunity and the optimist sees opportunities in every challenge.”

~Winston Churchill

Sunday Driver!

“Sunday driver!” we’d shout in fun at the slowpoke car in front of us.

Growing up, the term “road rage” hadn’t been invented yet. So when we kids were bouncing along in the back seat (that was before seat belts!) while Daddy drove and Mommy sat beside him, holding the baby in her lap (before mandatory car seats, too!)…we’d simply giggle and yell “Sunday driver!” as Daddy sped by the poky car ahead of us.

Ah, one more sweet memory…and yet another “Bits ‘n Pieces” of my life!
