FIRST THOUGHT OF THE YEAR


“The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure,
the process is its own reward.” - Amelia Earhart

caramba! so true.

in every new journey, the first step is always the most difficult.then slowly, you build up courage to take the second step. and on the third, you start learning how to hang on and keep steady.

HAPPY NEW YEAR Eric!!!

You quoted intrepid pilot Amelia Earhart. To this date I continue to follow what actually happened to her on that fateful last trip.

There is still no final resolution where her plane actually fell, in the wide expanse of the Pacific close to the old homeland.

The quote is most appropriate as a description of her life.
