Quote Of The Day





















"Moral cowardice that keeps us from speaking our minds is as dangerous to this country as irresponsible talk. The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character." ~ Margaret Chase Smith

Quote Of The Day















"I long to accomplish a great and noble tasks, but it is my chief duty to accomplish humble tasks as though they were great and noble. The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker." ~ Helen Keller

Quote Of The Day


















"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." ~ Theodore Roosevelt

Farrah Fawcett's Last Rites, Barbara Walters EXCLUSIVE - ABC News
















Growing up, I really didn't know anything much about Farrah Fawcett. However, I saw a picture of her in an old magazine and that's how I discovered Farrah. I was struck by her beauty and her look of grace. I liked her so much, I named my niece Farrah.

My aunt Agatha died in September 2008 from cancer (which had metastasized), by the name it was discovered she had cancer, there was little or nothing the doctors could have done. When I read how brave Farrah Fawcett was during her struggle with cancer, I am reminded of my aunt. They both handled themselves with so much grace and bravery.

It is a difficult experience losing a loved one and at such a young age. Farrah is going through a very painful experience and like my aunt when she was faced with unbearable pain; I have no doubt Farrah is hoping to go soon.

Farrah, you are a beautiful, talented, sexy and courageous woman and I wish you nothing but peace.
