1. God wants spiritual, not religious nuts...
2. Dear God, I have a problem, its me...
3. Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional...
4. There is no key to happiess, the door is always open...
5. Silence is often misinterperted, but never misquoted...
6. You do the math, count your blessings...
7. Faith is the ability to not panic...
8. Laugh every day, its like inner jogging...
9. If you wory don't pray. If you pray, don't worry...
10. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home everyday...
11. Blessed are the flexiblefor they shall not be bent out of shape...
12. The most important thing in your home are the people...
13. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still: God wants us to be still so he can untangle the knots...
14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry...
15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead...
16. We do not remember days, but moments. Life is moving too fast - so enjoy your precious moments...
17. Its all right to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done...
18. Nothing is real to you until you experience it, otherwise its just hearsay...
19. Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage. The goals and dreams you are seeking require courage and risk taking. Learn from the turtle, it only makes progress when it sticks its neck out...
20. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Oh chatty, thanks for sharing. This looks like something I need to put on the fridge! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

I liked all of them, but especially liked # 2. There was a day when I thought everyone else was the problem. With age I learned...it's me. But that's a good thing because I can change me, or at least keep working at it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I can also relate to #7. The more faithful I become the less panic stricken I am. But what happened when my computer went kaphlooey and I went with it for the first few days? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

I could write something about every one on the list!

What do you relate to?
