Mary's Minute

"One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living.  We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon – instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today."
                                                                                                 ― Dale Carnegie

"We are always getting ready to live but never living."
                                                                                                 --Ralph Waldo Emerson

With the holidays behind us and the New Year upon us, it is a time we often reflect and make plans.  The holidays are an example of a time where we put a lot of planning into preparing for a magical moment, which is certainly not a bad thing but if only plan and never do we are missing out on what really matters. The time will never be perfect, but to put off living is one of the greatest mistakes we can make. As we begin a New Year my hope is that we do not put off living and instead can enjoy the roses blooming. Whether it is in our work or personal lives, let's choose to live in the moment and live out our dreams now.
                                                                          Happy New Year!
