do what you can

October 4, 2010


i stumbled across this quote at work in my little calendar and it’s become my mantra over the past few weeks. i sometimes find the lines rolling around in my head – “do what you can…” – and I have to say it helps when the right path isn’t so clear. stress has been an unwelcome shadow of late and I’m doing my best to be good to myself. sleep is now my best friend which is partly why I have been so quiet here. i’ll update more soon when the words hopefully will come a little easier than they are at the moment.

hope you are all well.

i’m a little late in posting this but better late than never. i caught snippets of the Oscars the other week and scribbled down a wonderful quote jerry lewis recited when he received his award for humanitarian efforts:

“I expect to pass through life but once.
If therefore, there be any kindness I can show,
or any good thing I can do to any fellow being,
let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it,
as I shall not pass this way again.”

~William Penn
