    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT FAMILY ...

    "In FAMILY LIFE, LOVE is the OIL that EASES FRICTION,

    the CEMENT that BINDS CLOSER TOGETHER, and the

    MUSIC that BRINGS HARMONY."

     ~ Eva Burrows

    ITS NOT WHAT YOU HAVE ~ BUT WHO YOU HAVE

    TO SHARE IT WITH THAT COUNTS!  TREASURE

    YOUR FAMILY!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Sending SUNDAY LOVE Alex!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE SOUL ...

    "TRUE INTIMACY is the opening of ONE SOUL to

    another. No GIFT ON EARTH could COMPARE with it,

    for it TOUCHES US MORE PROFOUNDLY than our

    imagination can envision. When two people SHARE

    THEIR LIVES, FREELY, OPENLY, WITHOUT

    RESERVATION, it is as if EACH had BECOME

    COMPLETE ..."

    A LOVING FAMILY is EVERYTHING Alex!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT FAMILY ...

    “NO MATTER WHAT you've done for yourself or for humanity,

    if you can't look back on having given LOVE AND ATTENTION

    to YOUR OWN FAMILY, what have you really accomplished?”

    ~ Elbert Hubbard

    THE LOVE OF A FAMILY IS LIFE'S GREATEST BLESSING!

    Tears are the unspoken language of the HEART Alex!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT TEARS ...

    "TEARS speak MORE ELOQUENTLY than 10,000 tongues,

    MESSENGERS of OVERWHELMING GRIEF

    and

    UNSPEAKABLE LOVE.”

    THE RAIN FALLS BECAUSE THE SKY CAN NO LONGER HANDLE ITS WEIGHT.

    TEARS FALL BECAUSE THE HEART CAN NO LONGER HANDLE THE PAIN.

    Hi Alex!

     

    In Honor of Charles "Bird" Parker.

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT MUSIC ...

    "MUSIC is your own experience, YOUR THOUGHTS, YOUR WISDOM.

    If you don’t LIVE IT, IT WON'T COME OUT OF YOUR HORN.

    They teach you there’s a boundary line to music. But, man, THERE'S NO BOUNDARY LINE TO ART."

    ~ Charles "Bird" Parker

    Charles "Bird" Parker is hailed as the greatest alto saxophonist of his time.  He played brilliantly, but his addictions to drugs and alcohol ultimately led to his untimely death.  Charlie Parker died at the age of 34.

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,
