From Margot Fonteyn:
The one important thing I've learned over the years
is the difference between taking one's work seriously
and taking one's self seriously.
The first is imperative, the second is disastrous.
Be careful.

Crossed & Bent
Sometimes,
in the midst of a conversation,
something will be said that strikes a chord.
Yesterday, whilst chatting with a Ch-Angel,
this very thing occurred.
Crossed & Bent
Although it sounds like how I feel, it is much more than that.
In the realm of that conversation,
it was in reference to hoping for a good outcome.
"Let's keep our fingers crossed and our knees bent."
It just seemed very poignant.
So . . .
today, and always,
I hope you're 'crossed & bent'.

Normality
A shout out to Edie for bringing this to my attention.
This, my friends, is brilliant and I am a huge proponent of being
ANYTHING but normal!
Normality
is a paved road:
it's comfortable to walk,
but no flowers grow on it

Commit 2 Fit
Every New Year sees a massive influx of
folks who are determined to get in better shape.
That is NOT what this is about.
I have to admit that I saw this phrase somewhere,
but it hit me in an entirely different way.
You cannot just run on a treadmill
til you lose the weight you're looking to lose.
You cannot do a billion curls
in hopes that you're going to turn into Schwarzenegger.
It is an entire, whole body transformation that needs to occur.
Commit to balance.
Commit to nutrition.
Commit to health.
Commit to good choices.
Commit to sweating.
Commit to education.
Commit to caring.
When the WHOLE body is well, you are truly fit.
Commit 2 Fit!

3 Things
From Henry James:
Three things in human life are important.
The first is to be kind.
The second is to be kind.
The third is to be kind.

Transformation
Shed the old,
the tired,
the bedraggled,
the worn,
the frazzled.
Resolutions need not be
yearlong commitments.
Instead,
each day is an opportunity
to be a new and better you.
Learning.
Aspiring.
Reaching.

Happy New Year
To all you painters;
a fresh canvas.
To all you writers;
a blank page.
To all you wanderers;
a new path.
To all you dreamers;
an open vista.
To all of you;
a new year.
Make it what you want.
a fresh canvas.

a blank page.
To all you wanderers;
a new path.

an open vista.
To all of you;
a new year.
Make it what you want.
