Hello Paul - once again, I am unfamiliar with this quote and its author.  Thank you for sharing this one as well as many others that are new-to-me.  

I admit when such quotes are shown to me, I often refer back to one that is more familiar.  However, there are also times when something strikes a chord.  The mind is a mixture of "stuff" - isn't it?   Pulling it together can be a mystery.

I consider each quote a different perspective on life. I try to see through my comments how many my ActiveRain followers can add to my thoughts Michael Jacobs

I could just stare up into those clouds for a very long time and be quite content, haha.

Yes Paul, people should be themselves. I dislike when individuals have to be dishonest and make believe they are someone they are not...

Hi Paul- what a wonderful quote. One of the best days any of us can have is when we finally decide to be happy with the person we are.

Hi Paul,

Great words of advice from Dave Pelzer!  I always liked the added phrase of "dust yourself off". Have a great weekend.
