Now that we're a little ways into the new year . . .

Here's a few quotes to get you thinking about how you approach life and the new year. . .

"Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, stiff around a bit, and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these." - Susan B. Anthony

"If I had my life to live over again...I would have more actual troubles and less imaginary ones. Oh, I've had my moments, and if I had to do it over again, I'd have more of them. In fact, I'd try to have nothing else, just moments, one after another." - Nadine Stair

"Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference" - Virginia Satir

and lastly. . .

"Life is like a ten-speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use." - Charles Schulz

How many gears do you use?
