special words to live by...What a nicer world this world would be if all of us aspired to at least some of these :)
Such special words...wouldn't this world be a much nicer place if we all aspired to live by even some of these...
*Have a happy day :)*
Great ideals to live by if I could just put it to the task.
Hi Robyn,just dropping in to say I hope you had a wonderful Christmas~I am trying to play "catch~up" on the blogs!
Oh, if only! Great ideals to have and aspire to. A bit overwhelming when you read them all, but I'm sure I could master a couple at a time. Who knows where it might lead to?
Thanks Robyn, that list beats any New Year's Resolution.
I hope you have a very happy New Year, too.
Ohh thanks for the list Robyn - something for me to aspire too. Have a wonderful New Year.
Good stuff. And I think I'll print it off.
excellent advice - copying and pasting in to my journal me thinks!]
thanks Robyn.
