I gave my life to become the person I am right now. Was it worth it? Richard Bach

A quote that I have used for OVER 30 years is:

"A stranger is just a friend I haven't met yet"

Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better,
To paint a picture or write a letter,
Bake a cake or plant a seed,
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim and mountains to climb,
Music to hear and books to read,
Friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair,
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come around again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not kind.
Then when you go, and go you must,
You, yourself, will make more dust. Author unknown

There are no mistakes, only design opportunities.

I have two favorites,
"if you don't ask the answer is always no"
and my grandchildren's favorite "don't worry it will be better before your married"

I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better.

“I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men. They are far superior and always have been. Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she’ll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she’ll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she’ll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she’ll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of s--t.” Sir William Golding

"I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying." -- Michael Jordan

This was on my classroom wall for many years.
