Indira Ghandi said this. There are two kinds of people. Those who do all the work and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group, there is a lot less competition. MaryW

My after forty face felt far more comfortable than anything I lived with previously. Self-confidence was a powerful beauty- potion; I looked better because I felt better. Failure and grief as well as success and love had served me well. Finally, I was tapping into that most hard-won of youth dews: wisdom. --Nancy Collins Summer Summer

Ask yourself what would you do if you weren't afraid of making mistakes, feeling rejected, looking foolish or being alone? Take the fear away and the answer comes. Oprah MaryW

Whenever I feel like excercise I lie down until the feeling passes Robert M Hutchins ( not a woman I know) The only reason I would take up jogging is so I could hear the sound of heavy breathing again.

I love this by Erma Bombeck who wrote this after she was diagnosed with terminal cancer I believe. If I Had My Life To Live Over by Erma Bombeck If I had my life to live over, I would have talked less and listened more. I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded. I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace. I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth. I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed. I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage. I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains. I would have cried and laughed less while watching television - and more while watching life. I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband. I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day. I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil or was guaranteed to last a lifetime. Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle. When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, "Later. Now go get washed up for dinner." There would have been more "I love you's".. More "I'm sorrys" ... But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute... look at it and really see it ... live it...and never give it back. © Erma Bombeck Laura
