dna imagine used
Family is more than DNA, more than who we used to be, more than we can imagine we will become.
achievement joy survivor
It's sad that grandkids show up at the end of obituaries, way behind the list of work place achievements, social clubs and survivors. Why last? If you've got grandkids, you know they're first when it comes to the joy in your life.
cancer scary might
Cancer is messy and scary. You throw everything at it, but don't forget to throw love at it. It turns out that might be the best weapon of all.
cancer time-zones want
When you have cancer, it's like you enter a new time zone: the Cancer Zone. Everything in the Tropic of Cancer revolves around your health or your sickness. I didn't want my whole life to revolve around cancer. Life came first; cancer came second.
dad land long
We've come a long way from having one land line that was forbidden to be answered during dinner. We had no answering machine, just a dad who barked, 'Who calls during dinner? If it's important, they'll call back.' He was right.
destiny ideas choices
Choice, not chance, determines your destiny. It's up to you to decide what you are worth, how you matter, and how you make meaning in the world. No one else has your gifts--your set of talents, ideas, interests. You are an original. A masterpiece.

eye hands people
Sometimes you have to disconnect to stay connected. Remember the old days when you had eye contact during a conversation? When everyone wasn't looking down at a device in their hands? We've become so focused on that tiny screen that we forget the big picture, the people right in front of us.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
eye worry blink
Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
life success fun
If we threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
inspiration love-you who-god-is
God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
attitude purple waiting
Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
life dressing-up clothes-you-wear
No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
