Friday April 20th Oakwood/ Mountain View Performing Arts

We went straight from work to Mountain View Performing Arts Theatre to see John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. Miriam, Selly, Paula,Sue, and Deirdre met Mary and her great crew for drinks and food and meet and greet with the Theatre Works actors and crew. Really alot of good food and drink( red and white sangria's), and the company was excellent!!!!! got to meet Mary's famous husband Cam :-) :-) and the play was very good. we stayed out too late, poor Sell's has to work this morning, as I only have to swim and lay by the pool :-)
found out the actors are living at Oakwood, how much fun is that?.... I didn't have my camera w/me so have posted with compliments from Google images.

"I have a new respect for the mermaids, ... because it's very tough what they do."

"To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world."

"I love you, not for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you."

"I wanted to ask her what color her bra was and if she had pure thoughts every second of the day, but... "(from mermaids 1990)

Dinner at Gambardello's with the Mermaids to celebrate April and May Birthdays!

Many many laughs!

"If you can spend a perfectly useless afternoon in a perfectly useless manner, you have learned how to live."

I went out with my camera today! Miraculous day! The sunshine and air were perfect and I felt absolutely peaceful and happy....... So, I walked and listened to the animals and flowers and thought how very very lucky I am....Enjoy these pictures :-)

"Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind."

"The supreme prayer of my heart is not to be learned, rich, famous, powerful, or good, but simply to be radiant. I desire to radiate health, cheerfulness, calm courage, and good will. I wish to live without hate, whim, jealousy, envy, fear. I wish to be simple, honest, frank, natural, clean in mind and clean in body, unaffected, as ready to say I do not know, if it be so, and to meet all men on an absolute equality, to face any obstacle and meet every difficulty unabashed and unafraid. I wish others to live their lives, too - up to their highest, fullest, and best. To that end I pray that I may never meddle, interfere, dictate, give advice that is not wanted, or assist when my services are not needed. If I can help people, I'll do it by giving them a chance to help themselves; and if I can uplift or inspire, let it be by example, inference, and suggestion, rather than by injunction and dictation. That is to say, I desire to be radiant - to radiate life."

"If I could only remember that the days were, not bricks to be laid row on row, to be built into a solid house, where one might dwell in safety and peace, but only food for the fires of the heart."

"Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt before. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth."

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage."

"Always do what you are afraid to do."

"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen."

"It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are."

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

"Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

"One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest."

"Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?"

"Silence. All human unhappiness comes from not knowing how to stay quietly in a room."

"I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today."
