Quote for the day


"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished."

--Lao Tzu

Sounds like a principle that could be practiced in other areas besides nature.

Quote for the day


"Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present."

---Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

I got a freelance job on Friday. The 'final product' is due October 22nd. I'm excited and nervous as hell. Since accepting this opportunity, all my old insecurities have festered to the surface like splinters working out of skin. I think that is why the quote above struck a chord when I found it earlier today. These are words that I'm mentally repeating to (1) stay present and (2) remind myself that I have kicked ass in the past and I'll do it again. This week.

Quote for the day . . . .


"The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win, you're still a rat."

--Lily Tomlin

OK, OK. I'm guilty of taking the easy way out of updating my blog by using the quote above. I could/should be regailing y'all with all the crazy details of moving, selling a house, buying a house, setting up phone service, getting a trash can and (the all important) recycling bin, shopping around for flood insurance (a lesson to be discussed later), etc, etc.

Oh well. Maybe tomorrow.
