But first, some quotes that I love….
“The best kind of beauty is subtle, like a secret that only the important people know about. It should mirror the happiness and love found on the inside. True laughter is the sound of true beauty.” ~Jessica D’Arcy
“Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm … As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others.” ~Audrey Hepburn
“The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your lungs, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life’s plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life.” ~Robert Louis Stevenson
“Inhale, and God approaches you. Hold the inhalation, and God remains with you. Exhale, and you approach God. Hold the exhalation, and surrender to God.” ~Krishnamacharya
“Originality is… a by-product of sincerity.” ~Marianne Moore
“What you have become is the price you paid to get what you used to want.” ~Mignon McLaughlin
This cute little guy is pretty much the center of my universe. I’ll love him forever, and I’ll like him for always…. <3
And my husband….I would follow him anywhere and very nearly have! It’s been a bumpy winding road, but the journey has been the greatest gift. I think Ruth said it best:
“Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God.” Ruth 1:16.
She wasn’t talking about her husband, but this woman had the heart of a tried and true military spouse. When I think of the choices I willingly make and the way I process things, I think of her.

Definitely. Google translate is about 50% useful and 50% comical at times. It doesn’t seem to account for different dialects. Some things in German I have found do not translate well on there because so many phrases are regional. I may have to take you up on the advice for some posts! LOL
