Don't ask for something you can't (or won't) give.

I saw this quote on a friend's Facebook page, and most of my acquaintances came to mind.

This is a new year.

Question of the week

If you possess something but you can't give it away, then you don't possess it... it possesses you.
                         --Frank Sinatra:    Tom Dreesen on the Late Show with David Letterman on March 30th 2009 said that Frank Sinatra had said this after giving his $2000 cuff links to a fan.

A single leaf working alone provides no shade.

On a personal note - The Perils of Indifference

Indifference is not a beginning, it is an end. And, therefore, indifference is always the friend of the enemy, for it benefits the aggressor -- never his victim, whose pain is magnified when he or she feels forgotten.
--Holocaust survivor and Nobel Laureate, Elie Wiesel

I was reading a speech Elie Wiesel had given to the East Room of the White House on April 12, 1999, as part of the Millennium Lecture series, hosted by President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.

I loved the entire speech, but this passage touched me personally.

And I quote...

 You know that feeling you get when everything goes perfectly, constantly and nothing's ever wrong with anyone or anything? Me neither.

 

    a coworker sends out daily quotes, some memorable and some not so memorable. I like the one she sent out this morning:

                 I always take life with a grain of salt, plus a slice of lemon and a shot of tequila.

                                  -- unknown

              And after hearing the National election results last night and this morning, I might need that shot of tequila.  The Oregon Governor's race is still too close to call.

The saddest thing in the world, is loving someone who used to love you.
