"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense." -Emerson


"Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing about." -Benjamin Franklin

Alma 26:30 "And we have suffered all manner of afflictions, and all this, that perhaps we might be the means of saving some soul; and we supposed that our joy would be full if perhaps we could be the means of saving some."


Ultimate To-Do List

Expected Life Accomplishments : The Ultimate To-Do List

I am a planner in the generalist of terms. It is probably one of those things that the people who love me - love me in-spite of this particular attribute. This list is the spring board for all of my plans. I know, the majority of people have a list just like this one that they all say they will complete in that ever unattainable "someday". Quite frankly, a few of these will probably always be in my "someday" file. Especially with how countries come and go and change borders, my #1 will be tough. But I am a believer in goals and always trying to do the seemingly impossible.
