“When someone is angry and lashing out at you, as hard at it may be, don't take it personally. It's not about you; it's about what is going on inside of them.”
– Denise Marek

Play Ball!!!!

Marko played in his 11 year olds all star game on Saturday and then stayed to announce the 10 year old s all star game. He did such a great job, he got asked to do the announcing for the championship game......maybe a new career for him.

:)......now today he got asked to be the junior announcer at the Akron Aeros game when the Medina Youth Baseball League goes to the game next month!!!

If I was a spider princess, she said, I would spin webs the color of sky & catch drops of sunlight to give to children who watch too much TV & then everyone would remember to come outside to play. If I was a spider princess, she said, things would be different.

Mark and Marko :)
Marko is so obsessed with baseball....now if you say any position and the team, he can tell you who the person is.......
crazy stuff!!!!!

You either learn the lesson and become even better at it than you were before, or you postpone the lesson and it comes back around in a different form.

“In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.”

Dance!!

To be alive: not just the carcass
But the spark.
That's crudely put, but ...
If we're not supposed to dance,
Why all this music?

Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil

"We are visitors on this planet. We are here for one hundred years at the very most. During that period we must try to do something good, something useful, with our lives. if you contribute to other people's happiness, you will find the true meaning of life."
— H.H. The 14th Dalai Lama

Life

"Often, people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so that they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then, do what you need to do in order to have what you want."
-- Margaret Young

Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don't want it.
What appears bad manners, an ill temper or cynicism
is always a sign of things no ears have heard, no eyes have seen.
You do not know what wars are going on down there where the spirit meets the bone.
--Miller Williams

Live!!!!

Marko had his third annual homework burning party last night.
It was lots of fun and lots of little boys running around!!!!!!

... Be happy while you're living - for you're a long time dead ... ***
Face your problems bravely, confidently, and improve on your situation, no matter what state it be in. Be good to feel good. Be active and improve your mind. Laugh, relax, and sleep well .......
In our daily routine let's include time to enjoy others and thus ourselves. Look and wonder at the trees, fields and mountains, smell the flowers, hear the birds, and watch the clouds in the sky.

Life!!

Laughter!
