“To shut the door at the end of the workday, which does not spill over into evening. To throw away books after reading them so theydon't have to be dusted.

Other women besides me must have this daydream about a carefree life.”

“One Dad I know uses what I call Post-It® Note therapy on his children. He leaves sticky Post-It Notes everywhere ...in their lunch box, inside their shoes, on top of their sandwich before he wraps it up. He once went into his daughter's room, looking for his hammer, and on the back of her bedroom door were every Post-It Note he'd ever given her - over 250 in all with simple messages like 'Great job'...'I love you'...or 'You're special to me.'

History says, if it pleases, Excuse me, I beg your pardon, it will never happen again if I can help it.”

After you go through the first door, you'll then discover more doors automatically opening behind that one. One door leads you to another door, which leads to another door, and so one.

But you must be willing to walk through the first one to get to the other good things God has for you.”
