Thinking of Dad...
I remember my father's old saying, "I don't believe in luck. You make your own luck." This morning, I read this Quote of the Day and thought of him:
People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
- George Bernard Shaw
Smart words, wouldn't you say?
