can you believe it, but I am making Christmas stuff!! all for a Making Memories book. So, it's fun and exciting and I am loving it! Yesterday's comments were awesome! I read and re-read them the whole day. I would click to read the newest comment and then realize I read them all again. Thanks so much. You girls have some depth that is not common. This little image here is a copy from a little booklet I bought at shoppers drug mart awhile back. The "tiger" quote also comes from it. I am always on the lookout for little inspirations for pages and page titles. The little book is called LIVE like you were dying by Tim Nichols and Graig Wiseman. It came with a CD by Tim McGraw with a song of the same title. Very inspiring. Ok, so short post today. Lots of work for me. The kids have a day off today and Jaku is also working only this afternoon so I have the whole family here. JOY! my girls are wonderful companions and they know by now not to bother me too much while I am working.
Love deeper: you can't control the length of your life... just the DEPTH.
this must be one of my all time favorite sayings. I am all for deep. Significant. Meaningful. Uncommon. Exceptional. What's your favorite saying? Tell me. For yesterday's rak, Jaku picked number 40! So INGRID! please email me your address!
Have a great day!
Love
Wilna

Hmm.. Don't really have a favorite saying - but I do love quotes and anicdotes - heard this one today: "A vigorous five-mile walk will do more good for an unhappy but otherwise healthy adult than all the medicine and psycology in the world." Paul Dudley White, M.D..
Kind of hit home with me - I've been having a hard time getting out of bed in the morning this week, kind of unmotivated, feel like I need a concrete higher purpose.
But after reading this quote, I think maybe I just need a vigorous five-mile walk!
Have fun working on your MM book assignments!

I have a LOVE for all kinds of sayings.....so to pick one is hard.
I tell myself daily when I wake up - LIVE TODAY TO THE FULLEST!
And, about noon I remind myself to BREATHE DEEP.
Hi everyone
I often think of my favourites, because there was a time long ago, when I used at least two a month for gift tags...
For today, the first quote that comes to mind is:
'Be still & know that I am God'
Blessings to all who are ill, faraway or lonely,
Caro
Hi Wilna
My quote which I often remind myself about is:
What the mind can conceive, the body can achieve"

Hi Wilna
My favorite quote:
"The secret of art - and the secret of life- is to follow your own nose." From Mário Quintana, a great brazilian poet!! I love Christmas... I1m always doing Christmas projects to keep the spirit on, lol!!!!
Enjoy your day with your family!!
Hugs'n'kisses
Hi there!!! Gotta love *bloom where you are planted*! Have a fun day creating :) God bless you!
Hi Wilna,
My favourite saying is:
"Make new friends but keep the old; the new are silver, the old are gold." I even did a cross stitch of this saying. I love keeping in touch with my "golden" friends.
Love the notebook you made for the marriage conference.
For me it would be a saying from a fortune cookie -
"wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise"
my saying....
"unless it's fatal...it's no big deal."
sums it all up for me!
Hmmm...
one of my favorite sayings is "it is what it is". I know it's stupid, and I've been told by DH that John Fox (head coach of the Carolina Panthers football) says it a lot, but it's so true. If it walks like duck...
I love sayings and quotes. LOVE them! I guess that is what you get when you are a journalism major. You tend to love words.
I've been digging reading your blog every day. Thanks for doing such a great job and really keeping that inspiration pouring in!

....Better to burn out than rust out .....If you fail to plan you plan to fail........faith without works is dead..... a friend is somone who can sing you the song of your heart when you've forgotten it.....
One of my fav's is one I thought of a few weeks ago..."My life is not scrapbooking, it's the people I scrapbook"...Lisa Guidry
I read yesterday's post and I really appreicated it. I am timid. Scared to enter contests. I find it scary to put myself out there. But I am building that dream. I have it but I am almost still afraid to say them out loud. And I appreicate your words. A lot. A real lot. Thanks.
As for my favorite saying I think would be "to get down on your knees and pray and then get up on your feet and work."
(Oh and Thanks for the valetine hearts too!)
My favorite saying (I'm not sure it's a qoute though) is, "once you
accept your own death you can finally start living."

Oh and P.S. It's RAK time on my blog again :) Everyone come play!
two favorites.. one for my ministry - "The generation that the world can not change, will be the generation that will change the world" and for me alone (asspecially on blue days) Snoopy said, "you are the sunshine of your own life"
love ya

hi, i loaded some photos, go look!!
Wilna-Would you show us something from your Basic Grey album? I would so love to see it! BG is my absolute favorite! I have a quote that I love: If you always do what you have always done you will always get what you have always gotten!
Hiya Wilna
I just love quotes - ladies I would love to use some of your quotes on the site (?) - our daily quote cheers a lot of souls! My absolute best "A good laugh makes us better friends with ourselves and everybody aroung us." Orison Swett Marden
Another random fact about me - I have a BIG dream I just need to sift though the final curtain to get there! Luv ya and have a GREAT day we really he{art} you!

Hi there, at the moment my favourite is Dory " keep on swimming, keep on swimming". I will eventually get there....
I don't think I have one favorite. I do wish I could easily think of the perfect Bible verse for each page I do - maybe one day!
Hi Wilna! I've been away for a few days, and just stopped by to see what was new. Great blog! You are such an inspiration! Have a great day!
Hey Wilna,
I think the quote that I'm going to go with today is:
"Sometimes we need the most care when we seem to least deserve it."
Not sure who said it or wrote it but it seems to hold true.
Have a wonderful day!
"When you reach for the stars you may not quite get one, but you won't come up with a handful of mud either." Leo Burnett
Yesterdays post reminded me of this one.

"motivated by love and led by the wisdom from above" My own quote - it's my words for this year inspired by Ali Edward's challenge way back in January.
Have a great day Wilna! Kim
"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it" Edith Wharton.
Love your "tiger" post. Very inspiring. Thanks!
Hi Wilna
As always your message was just what I needed. I have so many favourite sayings, it's hard to choose my favourite. Have a great day!
This has to be my fav saying, it's so cute too.
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!"
Enjoy!
