Why I'm Here

I love this picture of the kids and I. It was taken about 2 1/2 years ago, and it reminds me of the best, and the worst time of my life. The worst, because I was going through a bitter divorce; something I had spent, pretty much, my whole life trying to avoid. The best, because during that time, I was showered with an enormous amount of love and support from friends, family, and even strangers. Through the worst, I experienced the best. It gave me an opportunity to see things I might not have seen otherwise, and I got to take a long, hard look at what was inside of me. I have a completely different perspective now, and I am grateful for that. Now, I just want to give to, give back, make a decent life for my kids, and share with the world the gifts that I've been given. This is the basis, and the purpose of my small business venture. I just hope it all works out!

Quote of the day - I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good thing, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.
