Thoughts for the day....... "It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived." George S. Patton
"On Memorial Day I don't want to only remember the combatants. There are also those who came out of the trenches as writers and poets, who started preaching peace and men and women who have made this world a kinder place to live.'' Eric Bourdon
Thanks to all of our veterans!

Thought for the day....... ``The greatest thing you can do to cultivate true wisdom is to practice the consciousness of the world as a dream. If failure comes, say: 'It is a dream.' Then shut off the thought of failure from your mind. In the midst of negative conditions, practice 'opposition' by thinking and acting in a positive, constructive way.'' Paramahansa Yogananda

Thought for the day....... ``There seem to be two kinds of searchers: those who seek to make their ego something other than it is, i.e. holy, happy, unselfish (as though you could make a fish unfish), and those who understand that all such attempts are just gesticulation and play-acting, that there is only one thing that can be done, which is to disidentify themselves with the ego, by realizing its unreality, and by becoming aware of their eternal identity with pure being.'' Wei Wu Wei
You're soooo welcome, payne!!!

We don't have to be a continuation of our past or define what is next by what has come before. We can choose to make a brand new start.'' Lisa Guyman

Thought for the day....... "The love of wilderness is more than a hunger for what is always beyond reach; it is also an expression of loyalty to the earth, the earth which bore us and sustains us, the only paradise we shall ever know, the only paradise we ever need, if only we had the eyes to see. . . . No, wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, as vital to our lives as water and good bread." Edward Abbey (1927 - 1989)
Hi Robin, thanks! We are visiting our son in Denali National Park, Alaska. We have been on the road since June 21st and some of the time we haven't had access to the internet. So, happily, we are on the 'grid' here. We have internet until we start the long road trip back to CO, our connections will vary a lot again while on the road.
