“Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”   —   J.M. Barrie

(Tonight, the Saint Peter’s Peacocks have brought A LOT of sunshine into the lives of folks who just love a great underdog story!  NCAA Basketball history was made tonight, with the first 15th seed team making it to the Elite Eight!  These kids are playing WAY above their expectation and reputation.  I don’t even care all that much about basketball, but I’m loving this!  The quote?  Yeah, it’s a recent rerun.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another.”   —   James Matthew Barrie

 

No regrets. No looking back. Just hold onto life and move forward. We have no way of knowing what lies ahead…and that is what makes the journey even more exciting. (Photo credit: deeplifequotes)

(Very few men get to live the life that they meant for themselves.  For those that do, I wonder if they consider themselves fortunate, or perhaps a little bit trapped?  Hmm.  This quote makes me think of myself, of course, but more so my father.  After my parents’ divorce he bounced around from one relationship to another.  He was married again for a while, then single for a good bit.  Eventually he ended up in a long-term, common-law marriage with a good woman, but I know he had so many regrets.  It makes me sad to think that he died so seemingly unfulfilled.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
