To boldly jump in and become it.<BR/><BR/>I think about that quote a lot. I think and think and think about it. (Ach!

I took a long walk with the dogs yesterday thinking all the while "My ass is the size of a peanut" I got some strange looks as I walked along like I was Miss Thang and when I came home guess what I made for dinner? Asian noodles and shrimp in PEANUT sauce. Maybe too much emphasis on Peanut?Mary Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08923591889426758103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505763013379679552.post-1113277107786450612008-01-09T06:11:00.000-08:002008-01-09T06:11:00.000-08:00Very true.

I liked your Yoga teacher's idea that goals occur in the future. I worry about the future which may not even happen.
