(Hard, 2 pts) Incorporate a Ralph Waldo Emerson quote:
(((((I couldn't just CHOOSE one!)))
*"Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beautiful is God's handwriting."
*"For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind."
*"He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life."
*"Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen."
*"You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late."

Change of plans....
I have all of this written out, but I really don't have any time to write....So here it goes....
I kept requiem there because I worked hard to research it, and then write out the definition...so I'm a gonna leave it there! That's that! I was thinking Requiem for a Dream...as in the movie, but there's also a movie called Dream World from 2012. I don't know! I'm out of the loop movie wise!
So does requiem for a dream mean dying for a dream? That's my interpretation of it anyway. Opinions are always welcome, of course! I just won't be able to reply till after I get back!
"People only see what they are prepared to see."
~~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sometimes I'm like the above quote....
Dare to dream: I get goosebumps when I dare to dream a little dream! I hope one day it will all work out for me. I'm a hopeless daydreamer. Maybe one day in the near future, good things will happen for me...*sigh* One day...
OK....Well! That's it for me! I will be online for a few more hours...here and there...in between my shifts...before heading for the east coast to visit with family.
I hope everyone has a great weekend! :)
Oh, and Happy Easter to those who celebrate!
