While each season is relatively short, we also need to remember that we are only here on this Earth for a short visit. Be sure to enjoy every moment. Stop to smell the roses and find the good in all there is.

I hope you had a wonderful St. Paddy’s Day. We just returned from a two-week ski trip in Europe. We were thinking of going to Ireland for St. Patrick’s Day but we heard they just don’t celebrate like we Americans do. Anyway, as this quote says I hope you live a long and inspiring life and never have a want in the world. May you have all that you need.
“May you live as long as you want but never want as long as you live.”

The Irish always seem to know just what to say. I love this quote. It’s a blessing for peace and gentle seas and the last line just makes me smile “may it always be the other guy who says this drink’s on me”. Too funny. I love it! May you have a great St. Patrick’s Day this year. We will be celebrating in Switzerland.
“May the winds of fortune sail you, may you sail a gentle sea, may it always be the other guy who says this drink’s on me.”

Loving someone means that you care about their happiness. Seeing them happy makes you happy. It’s about lifting each other up! Whether it’s your spouse, your partner, your friend, or another family member caring about them and their happiness is essential to yours.
Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.

Deeds, what you do, and how you act are more important than the words you say. Show your partner how much you love them and care for them in your actions not just in your words.
Love is shown more in deeds than in words.

We are all unique in the way we love and express love. We have many different relationships with many different people and there are as many different kinds of love. Let’s take this month of February to express our love for each other.
I think… if it is true that there are as many minds as there are heads, then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts.

We all have choices to make. Maybe we have made some wrong decisions in the past. Maybe we have felt lost and didn’t know where to turn. But remember you can start now and make any change for you. Make a new ending to your life’s story.
“Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.”
