"A friend suggested I include this quote from Across the Universe, a fun-loving ode to the Beatles. It seems pretty fitting, for right now anyway:
Max: Why is it always about “what will you do”? Do, do, do, do, do. Why isn’t the issue here who I am?
Uncle Teddy: Because, Maxwell, what you do defines who you are.
Max: No, Uncle Teddy. Who you are defines what you do..."
This on the eve of New Year's Eve...I think it's appropriate.
I also heard this little January gem and loved it:
"Don't resolve to do. Just do."
I'm off to chop my hair off. Enough of this fence sitting. We need a festive due to ring in the next decade. Wow...do you remember where you were ten years ago? Can someone remind me where I was? Neat how much things have changed, isn't it?
NOTE: I just talked to Marcy for an hour and a half. It was lovely. She told me that my Uncle Gary, her husband, my father's brother, is an avid reader of The Blog. I'm blown away, honestly. I love The Blog...didn't know anyone other than Mom and Leanne love The Blog too. I'm tickled pink. So as promised, hello, Uncle Gary!
