Qouting

I'm a godmother, that's a great thing to be, a godmother. She calls me God for short, that's cute, I taught her that.

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
And remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly & clearly;
and listen to others,the dull & ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud & aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain & bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career,
however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing future of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity & disenchantmentit is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue & loneliness.
Beyond wholesome discipline,be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,no less than the trees & the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,whatever you conceive Him [sic] to be,
and whatever your labours & aspirations,in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.With all its sham, drudgery & broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

(waves hand) HI! I'm new :)

First let me start off by saying Thank you for stopping by and taking a moment out of your busy day to read what goes on in one woman's mind. I greatly appreciate it. :)



This is my very first blog, so I guess you can just call me "the new girl". I'll have to admit that I am pretty nervous about starting my blog. You see, I am one of those types of people that keeps there thoughts, observations and poems hidden in a journal. So I have some concerns.. like, Will I stay true to my blog? What if a post appears to judgemental or too opinionated? and worst of all, What if, just what if, I run out of things to say?? All in all, this is an adventure I am willing to take.



So, Welcome to Sally, my very first blog. I hope whatever I write here, you as a reader and perhaps a writer yourself, will find something meaningful, helpful, and perhaps maybe a little funny.
