Monday's Musing

This Monday falls on my birthday (eeek!), so I went searching for birthday inspiration. And though this isn't what I had in mind when I began looking, once I found it, I couldn't think of using anything else. I love it! :)

"He not busy being born is busy dying."

- Bob Dylan

Wonderful. And isn't it the truth?!

I wanted to think all of you so much for the great comments and quotes you left last week. I love them! They have been running through my head all week. btw, Del, my kids are now saying "make it a great day!"

I am still running around like a madwoman on book deadlines, so I will apologize yet again for dropping off the face of the Earth. It's amazing how many details there are! I am so looking forward to catching up with everyone again. I've missed y'all!

In Muir news, look at these beauties from Gomitolina, Kim, and JoKo! Are they not gorgeous?!

  7. Oh, and I just remembered the quote from Morgan Freeman's character in "The Shawshank Redemption" that was tickling the back of my mind: "Get busy livin' or get busy dying'."

  20. Happy Birthday, Rosemary! I hope your day was wonderful.

    One of my favorite quotes is this one:
    "A friend knows the song in my heart and sings it to me when my memory fails."

    I've only seen it attributed to anonymous so I don't know who said it.
