For the first 50 years of my life, my perfectionist self mistakenly believed it was all about knowing more, getting it right, planning, attempting to prevent bad things from happening, and keeping all of my chicks in a row. It took me this long to discover that the JOURNEY is all that matters. This quote from Gilda Radner sums it all up:

"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. "

A Christmas Story


He hadn't stopped Christmas from coming--it came!
Somehow or other, 
it came just the same.
~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!







"Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. 
What if Christmas, 
he thought, 
doesn't come from a store. 
What if Christmas, 
perhaps, 
means a little bit more."
~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas








"He brought everything back, all the food for the feast.  
And he, he himself, the Grinch, carved the roast beef."
~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas


"Then the Whos, young and old, will sit down to a feast.  
And they'll feast, and they'll feast.  
And they'll feast, feast, feast!"
~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas






"Welcome, Christmas, bring our cheer.  
Cheer to all Whos far and near.  
Christmas Day is in our grasp so long as we have hands to clasp. 
Christmas Day will always be, 
just as long as we have we."

~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas
