life in clifton Here's something I found today that touched me deeply.
First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then I was dying to marry and have children.
And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough so I could get back to my career.
And then I was dying to retire.
And now I am dying...
And suddenly realized that I forgot to Live.
Dance While you can.
I will not stand to the side and allow the music in my heart to fade away and die. I will dance to my own life song.I want to dance with my loved ones to watch our dreams unfold one by one.I will stop looking back with regrets or looking forward with fear and give the best I have today.I will quiet my soul... silince the noise in my head and heart and ask myself what I really want out of life.I will slow down, set limits on my committments and work and make certain that those whom I love remain first in my life. I will not allow the pressures that bear down upon our lives to get wedged between us and keep us apart.I will share your hope's and dreams and desires. I will believe that you can turn your dreams into reality.I will make truth the hallmark of my life. I will have the courage to make decisions that I stand behind without wavering.I will stop complaining about what I don't have and I will learn to be truly grateful for what I do have. I will be content though not complacent.I refuse to allow my past to determine my future. I will make the necessary changes in my life to ensure that I am truly living consistently with what I want to be in my heart and what I say I believe in. I will remember that money is only material, that titles mean little, but that who I am is what really matters.

That's a great thing to blog. Very inspiring and motivational. Where did you get it from?
Well, I feel like everyone's been invited to a party besides me. I didn't realize you had started blogging again. I can't believe you are still sick. Maybe if I start now I could become a doctor and help you out before any of these other doctors do anything productive as far as diagnosing you.
This blog was very inspiring. I have heard the dying quote before. Both were very inspiring and a refreshing breath of fresh air on this Monday morning. It is a good day to live McDougal! Love ya.
