Pray Hard. Live Easy.

Look to this day, for it is life, the very breath of life. In its brief course lie all the realities of your existence; the bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty. For yesterday is only a dream, and tomorrow is but a vision. But today, well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day. Ancient Sanskrit This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.  Psalm 118:24 

“A relaxed attitude lengthens a man’s life…” - Proverbs 14:30

I do not ask to walk smooth paths nor bear an easy load. I pray for strength and fortitude to climb the rock strewn road. Give me such courage and I can scale the hardest peaks alone, And transform every stumbling block into a stepping stone. ---- Gale Brook Burket

"Choosing courage again and again, the more courageous we become."

To love is to recognize yourself in another.  -Eckhart Tolle

One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself. ---Lucille Ball

"The heart has its reasons,   which reason knows not of." -  Blaise Pascal 23:03 The rescue is always within reach. Don't be shy to ask for help, within or around you. Consider Pascal's call to life:   "If you bet on God,   and open yourself to his love,   you lose nothing, even if you're wrong.   But if instead you bet that there is no God,   then you can lose it all, in this life and the life to come."
