Yesterday was the 365th page of 2018 Today 2019 Begins


Good - Bye 2018
and 
Hello 2019





Today marks the first page in our Book of 2019. 

"Time flies like an arrow
fruit flies like a banana."



I trust your celebrations were an explosion 
of all the goodness and woes of 2018
readying us all for a fresh beginning in 2019.


What do you think of fireworks?
I'd say they're pretty dynamite. 

Determination. 
Keep your dreams alive.



Keep reaching for your
 "King of the Mountain Moment"
all year long.


A smile is a chosen vehicle of all ambiguities.
Herman Melville



If everyone is moving forward together
then success takes care of itself.
Henry Ford



Learn the rules like a pro
so you can break them like an artist.
Pablo Picasso 





It is not down in any map,
true places never are.
Herman Melville





I think people have had too much to think
 and ought to flex their magic muscles.
Captain Beefheart




Be. Create. Solve. Why? and How? Are important.
Study. Learn. test. Discover. Live well.

"It is not the answer that enlightens,
but the question."
Eugene Ionesco



Dreams and sadness bring us together.
Be as kind as you are bold.


Man ( and children too) is a make-believe animal
he is never so truly himself 
as when he is acting a part.
William Hazlitt



2018 brought much to the true meaning of voting.
Teach/share/spread the meaning of voting to those in need.





"The proper function of man is to live, not to exist."
Jack London
and 
"You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club."



Prejudice is the child of ignorance.
W. Hazlitt

The most beautiful stories always start with wreckage.
Jack London



"The love of liberty is the love of others,
the love of power is the love of ourselves."
William Hazlitt





"A gentle word, a kind look, a good natured smile can work
wonders and accomplish miracles."
W. Hazlitt



Life is absurd. 
You cannot unmask a mask.
Be the you that
you truly are.

Albert Camus




The only way to deal with an unfree world 
is to become so absolutely free that your
very existence is an act of rebellion. 


This. Is. Something. That we all must discover.
We cannot live only for ourselves.

Thank you for sharing your
time with me this year. 
Hard to believe 2018 is history.
I appreciate and enjoy all of your visits
and visiting you as well.
Take good care of you.
