Quotes and Notes #100, February 10
”What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.”–Henry David Thoreau
Today is a milestone on my endeavor to provide 365 of these short observations.
John Prine wrote a line, “We talked …until you said something neither of us knew.”
In the writing of these posts I have come to realize several things, among them:
- Smiling creates happiness. Sharing a smile is important.
- Optimism becomes stronger through practice.
- I can choose my own attitude.
- “Use your gifts faithfully, and they shall be enlarged.” (Arnold)
Perhaps somewhere, somehow, these realizations are making a difference.
Everything is going to be all right
