Living a Good Life

Sue and Trish (quote sent by Joe)
"A miracle worker is an artist of the soul.  There's no higher art than living a good life.  An artist informs the world of that's available behind the masks we all wear. That's what we're all here to do.  The reason so many of us are obsessed with becoming stars is because we're not yet starring in our own lives.  The cosmic spotlight isn't pointed at you; it radiates from within you.  I used to feel like I was waiting for someone to discover me, to "produce" me, like Lana Turner at the drugstore.  Ultimately I realized that the person I was waiting for was myself.  If we wait for the world's permission to shine, we will never receive it.  The ego doesn't give that permission.  Only God does, and He has already done so.  He has sent you here as His personal representative and is asking you to channel His love into the world.  Are you waiting for a more important job?  There isn't one." - Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles

Hi,
I am Claudia Starich Cox, cousin to Bev.and Pat. I couldn't believe how much you two look like Bev. I loved her so much and wish she could have made it to see you all grown up and dong so many good things. Keep it up. I know she is watching.
