Criticism, like rain, 

should be gentle enough to nourish a 

man's growth without destroying his roots.

“Hope is the thing with feathers 

That perches in the soul 

And sings the tune without the words 

And never stops at all.” 

~ Emily Dickinson ~

Its easy to forget 

things you want to remember. 

Its hard to forget things 

you don't want to remember.

“All teachings are mere references. 

The true experience is living your own life. 

Then, even the holiest of words are only words.”

Remembering Annette Hanshaw on Her Birthday!!!

Join Me For Coffee and Birthday Cake!

 Sweetheart Annette Hanshaw
was born 120 years ago October 18th 1901 in Manhattan. For us, she’s the gold
standard for songbirds of the late 1920s and early ’30s; we think she’s
keen. She retired after only a few years—the spotlight didn’t suit
her—but what a legacy she left.

Gardening is medicine 

that does not need a prescription 

...And with no limit on dosage.

Don't try to be good in everything. 

Be good in one thing. 

That's what makes you special.

~  Wilson Kanadi ~ 

“Your mind is your garden,

Your thoughts are your seeds,

The decision is yours to plant 

flowers or weeds.” 

~ Unknown ~

“Never idealize others. 

They will never live up to your expectations. 

Don't over-analyze your relationships. 

Stop playing games. 

A growing relationship can only 

be nurtured by genuineness.” 

~ Leo Buscaglia ~

“If one cannot enjoy reading 

a book over and over again, 

there is no use in reading it at all.” 

~ Oscar Wilde ~
