Smile Nice quote my sister sent me...something to start your day!

"Life isn't about waiting for the
storm to pass....
It's about learning how to dance
in the rain"

OH Vic, how true that is. Thanks for sharing. Waiting for this or that in our life to make us happy never comes. "Life" is today..............and we definitely need to grab a hold and live each moment to the fullest, no matter what. Easier said than done though....but something we all need to work on because today is all we have.....tomorrow may never come.....no one knows.

Thanks Vic.....I liked that.

Mary Jo

Vic,

Since we get 144 inches of precipitation every year, that is a great quote!

Yeah, makes me want to jump in a puddle

Glad you all liked the quote. Being in So. Cal. it's always something special when the rain comes (you just don't want to be on the freeways!).

When we go back to visit my husband's mother in Ripon, WI, I'm always excited to hear the thunder and see the lightning. I remember those days back in Ohio.

Very nice words, Mary Jo, about "life" is today. So true.

Vic
