Journal Entry for September 24, 2007 Mood
Monday, September 24, 2007

Since I will not be able to check in all week... I just got the following from a friend and thought I would share it with you.....I hope everyone has a very peaceful week & can find at least one thing everyday to smile about - no matter how small & insignificant it may be.....Hugs, Ann

"For years I never knew whether the twilight was the ending of the day
or the beginning of the night
and then, suddenly one day,
I understood that this did not matter at all,
for time is but a circle,
and so there can be no beginning and no ending,
and this is how I came to know that birth and death are one,
and it is neither the coming or the going that is of consequence.
What is of consequence is the beauty that one gathers in this interlude called life."

From "Come Walk Among the Stars,"
by Winston Abbott
