"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance..."

RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: April 13, 2013: "The message that underlies healing is simple..."

"The message that underlies healing is simple yet radical: We are already whole.... 
Underneath our fears and worries, unaffected by the many layers of our conditioning and actions, is a peaceful core. The work of healing is peeling away the barriers of fear that keep us unaware of our true nature of love, peace, and rich interconnection with the web of life. Healing is the rediscovery of who we are and who we have always been."

~Joan Borysenko

RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: April 7, 2013: "Our school lunch is from outer space..."

"Our school lunch is from outer space,
endangering the human race.
The meatballs bounce right off the floor, 
the fish cakes could break down a door.
The bread was baked ten years ago, 
the burgers look like they will grow.
The chicken has the chicken pox, 
the peas are frozen in a box.
The spinach gives you legs gangrene, 
the fruit juice tastes like gasoline.
The soup is salty as the sea, 
the franks explode like TNT. 
The salad bar - don't dare try it, 
the carrot cake once caused a riot.
The deadly tuna casserole 
can bore a hole right through the bowl.
The fries could knock you off your chair, 
the corn could make you lose your hair.
The way they cook here is a crime...
But lunch is still my favorite time."

~Eternal*Dream

RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: April 2, 2013: "In truth a family is what you make it..."

"In truth a family is what you make it. It is made strong, not by number of heads counted at the dinner table, but by the rituals you help family members create, by the memories you share, by the commitment of time, caring, and love you show to one another, and by the hopes for the future you have as individuals and as a unit."

~Marge Kennedy

RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: April 1, 2013: "The maple syrup's full of ants..."

"The maple syrup's full of ants.
A mouse is creeping on the shelf.
Is that a spider on your back?
I ate the whole pie by myself.
The kitchen sink just overflowed.
A flash flood washed away the school.
I threw your blanket in the trash.
I never lie - I - 
April Fool!"

~Myra Cohn Livingston
