Untitled

A group of us celebrated Mandy's belated birthday yesterday. We dined at Kenny Rogers and ordered quite a spread. I could see that everyone enjoyed the meal and there was a lot of laughter and teasing going round the table. I have always enjoyed warm occasions as such, catching up with friends over a long dinner or coffee break. It totally fits one of my favorite quotations:

You have achieved success if you have lived well, laughed often and loved much
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like the song "Fly" by Hilary Duff. Here are the lyrics. Inspirational words in bold.

"Fly"

In a moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of your yesterday.

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

All your worries, leave them somewhere else,
Find a dream you can follow,
Reach for something, when there's nothing left,
And the world's feeling hollow.

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

And when you're down and feel alone,
Just want to run away,
Trust yourself and don't give up,
You know you better than anyone else,

In a moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of yesterday,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try,
Fly
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

In a moment, everything can change.
