treasures for those light of heart.

Still working on the Site Overhaul...

Hello.
I've been so busy. I've got so much content to upload sometimes it's overwhelming!
Until I can get some time to do that, entries are going to be sparse for the next week or so.
But by Christmas holidays this should be revamped and ready for a new year!
Oh what will this new year bring?
How will this year end?
It's up to me!
How do you plan to carry on through
and what will you do?
love you love you love you.

1/2 of Ground School...Complete.

Nina Simone

Right now it feels like you're singing this for me.

Half the ground school done

and the real fun is just beginning!

best quote of the day today!

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes a lot of your time. And what do we get at the end of it? Death! What's that...a bonus? I think the life cycle is backwards. You should die first and get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young. You get your first gold watch. You go to work. You work forty years or until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol - you party. You get ready for High School. You go to Grade School. You go back into the womb spend 9 months floating... and finish off as an Orgasm! - George Carlin

Happy One Year Anniversary GaliKat!

One year and 2900 views. Thanks everyone! After a year of jumping in and figuring stuff out, I'm starting to get the hang of this blogging thing. A picture update later, but here are some of the women who have inspired me this year..

Queen Tamara of Georgia
Zenobia, Queen of Palmyra
Queen Nzinga
Rani of Jhansi
Margaret Thatcher
Amelia Earhart

and for inspiration, here are some quotes...

"The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward." - Amelia Earhart


"Courage is the price that Life exacts for granting peace, The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things." - Amelia Earhart


"The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one's appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship." - Amelia Earhart


Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
Margaret Thatcher

I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.
Margaret Thatcher

The Ranee was remarkable for her bravery, cleverness and perseverance; her generosity to her Subordinates was unbounded. These qualities, combined with her rank, rendered her the most dangerous of the rebel leaders.
 -- General Sir High Rose, on the Rani of Jhansi
