Goodness

A thought-provoking insight from Helen Keller, who was born deaf, dumb and blind:

“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved“.

Today, I commit to not letting the obvious, like the insight here, be invisible to me.

Make today another day to focus your commitment on the obvious, but mostly invisible, laws of nature.

White Eagle

“And how, you ask, are we to walk the spiritual path? We answer: say little, and love much; give all; judge no man; aspire to all that is pure and good“. — White Eagle

Make it a great Mid-Life day. It’s our attitude and our choice. Always is and always will be. It’s the one thing we do have control over.

PS. No one ever promised it would be easy. When I start feeling like my path is hard, I think of, or click on, Nick Vujicic.

Mid Life Money and Disney Training

Mid life money and Disney training? What the?

This is my third post this morning and I want to do a short recovery run from yesterday’s “Comeback 5k” race, before we head off for Palm Sunday Mass.

Here ya go, some Mid-Life wisdom, which even Walt Disney might have said, “Is money in the bank”!

“The dog’s kennel is not the place to keep a sausage“. — Danish Proverb

Life is like this. But, the obvious becomes invisible. This quote? I think it’s the “tip of the iceberg” in our oblivion. Carpe diem, jeff 🙂
