A Smoky Mountain HI

Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

November thoughts

Whenever you see a successful businessman, you are looking at someone, that has learned to swim upstream.

Two old guys have been playing checkers for 70 years or so and one turned to the other and said " I don't want to offend you but I can't remember your name any more. Would you mind telling me?" The others old guy squirmed and hesitated a bit and then ask. "How soon do you need to know?"

Life is where you act out what you believe.

True fortunes are made of, friends, family and God.

Consciously, do right and your conscience will become your best friend.

Work is only a job if your job is a job not a calling.

It is the attitude you take to work that makes a job or a possibility.

Expectation breeds character or failure.

To do nothing effectively one must be content to be nothing.

Marriage is the interaction of souls in the pursuit of happiness.
