Keep flying!
It is the person who fails, who tries and tries, yet fails, that has the most sterling story than anyone you know successful. I know many who wrote grants their first time and got it, many who resigned from jobs and moved on, many who turned their back on things great and kept their backs…

Keep life still
If this is life, if this is the moment between our birth and our death, I hope you spend each moment loving those that let love win with a bouquet of carnations and baby breath. Otherwise try, try to inhale love, exhale everything else! Today happens to be one year when dreams began earnestly and…

That and grateful that everyone can bring their gifts, their sense of well being to such a feast and well all of us in attendance are richer because of the variety and distinctiveness of the offerings our eyes created.
