Inspiration

1. Slow down; God is still in heaven. You are not responsible for doing it all yourself, right now.

2. Remember a happy, peaceful time in your past. Rest there. Each moment has richness that takes a lifetime to savor.

3. Set your own pace. When someone is pushing you, it's OK to tell them they're pushing.

4. Take nothing for granted: watch water flow, the corn grow, the leaves blow, your neighbor mow.

5. Taste your food. God gives it to delight as well as to nourish.

"Your best shot at having a beautiful marriage is if both of you make it your goal to become more like Jesus."

It is said that when the famous American columnist Dorothy Parker first came to work at The New Yorker, she found herself isolated and lonely in her small office there.

Never one to be ignored, she managed to convince one of the janitors to paint the word "MEN" on the door to her office.

After that, she said, she met lots of new people, and all of them male, too.

"Only one thing," she added, "they always seemed to be in a hurry."

"Sometimes I joke about what I'd do if I had one day left to live. Eat junk, go crazy, etc.
Today it hit me: Jesus knew. And he washed feet."
