"Success in highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind and enjoyment and happiness which comes only to the man who has found the work he likes best."
Napoleon Hill
I believe that parenting is the "highest and noblest form" of success.

I agree, Pati. Now I'm just praying that God guides me. I need his guidance right now more than ever.
I arrived here from Ali's site and I've been reading your blog since you began. I just wanted to say thank you for spreading a little peacefulness. Every time I read one of your quotes I think-- that's just what I needed today. I couldn't agree with you more. Right now I'm reveling in being a mama.
Experience peace in times of chaos. Learn and study about peace. Share the peace with others. Work for peace in our family, our community and our world.

"To laugh often and much,
to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of chldren;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch
or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

For many years, I suspected as much. Now, I am a mom and I know it is true. I love being a parent!
