"dream + desire + devotion + drive + diligence + determination = destination"


All I can say is that I love this quote...although I can't take credit for it...
(I think I read it on twitter)...

"dream + desire + devotion + drive + diligence + determination = destination"

Short & Sweet... and said so very well...

All things we do in life can be summed up in these "Seven" words.



It all starts with a DREAM...a wish, a hope, or a wild fantasy for something we long for... each & everyone of us has "Our Dreams".

If we want "Our Dreams" to come true, we must have a strong DESIRE to...
 "Make It Happen".

we can't just "WISH" for something to happen...

This path requires us to have...

DEVOTION in our lives...spirituality helps keep us find peace on the path to "Our Destination".

DILIGENCE...ahhh...perserving through all of the ups & downs...in other words hard-work...we all know that nothing in life is EASY.

DETERMINATION...a firmness of purpose...resolving to approach the task with enthusiasm & energy.   

And finally...

We will arrive at our...

DESTINATION..."Our Ultimate Goal"...the reward for all the hard work we did to get to...
 "Our Destiny".

So, off I go...armed with all the words I need to get started...



Ahhhhhh "To be young again".


Wishing on a star,
Kathleen Sforza

I'm leavin' on a jet plane...



And then...

Sailing takes me away...To where I've always heard it could be...


It's that time of year...can anyone say "VACATION"


Many words come to minds...


EXCITEMENT...ANTICIPATION...STRESS...WORRY...
EXHAUSTION ???


Of course, I'm totally excited to be going on vacation.
I anticipate all the fun things I will do and places I will see...







BUT...


I worry about getting everything done before I leave.


Who doesn't ???


Did I take care of all the things at work ???


Should I keep my eBay Store open and risk getting bad feedback because I will have no Internet service ???     

WORRY !!!

Or do I close and have no money for the month...BIGGER WORRY !!!


Did I pay all the bills ???


Did I pack enough??? LOL...I think I packed enough for a year's stay.


Reminds me of the quote:
When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money.
Then take half the clothes and twice the money. ~Susan Heller

Can I clean the whole house and have it *SPARKLE* for my return ???
NOT...

So off I go...

On second thought...

Did I turn off the iron, the hair straightener and did I lock the back door ???

Ciao...Geia...Au revoir...Allaha ismarladik,
Kathleen
