The Dargis sisters featured in March 2011 issue of The Furrow |
So, as I paged through the rest of the issue, I stumbled upon more inspiration in the Fun & Philosophy pages. Fun quotes, cute stories, a cartoon about beavers. What's not to love? A few highlights that are worth sharing, if nothing more than to remind myself of these quotes later.
- Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing -- Theodore Roosevelt
- Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset. -- Francis de Sales
- Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom -- Marcel Proust
- Procrastination is like a credit card: It's lots of fun until you get the bill.
- Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears.
- Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
- Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.
I'm going to google these girls and see if I can read more about them. Quite impressive!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I am just finding this now but Thank you Shannon for the kind mention. I am proud to say that my sisters and I are very happy, busy and continuing to grow by living the empowered, fulfilled lives that everyone has the potential to do! I've enjoyed speaking about our story because it offers a reminder of how precious life is and inspires so many towards being positive, appreciative and living their life to it's fullest! Cheers, Leona :)
