"Children are great imitators. So give them something great to imitate."

Its soo true, my daughter has my "I mean business" tone down to a tee and she is only 2 Makes me sad though because poor little Caylee didn't have something great to imitate.


"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." Albert Einstein, physicist

I think the As need to read that and think about the years they allowed KC to do her BS with no punishment.

As the geat Tom Petty once said " I won't back down, I will stand my ground, you can put me up to the gates of hell....but I won't back down"

Yes, KC, CA, and GA, we won't back down until we find Caylee..........

Portia from Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice:

The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.

Jaques in As You Like It by Shakespeare:

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.

"there was a chloroform search"

 

[hornswoggled]

One hundred years from now
It won't matter
What kind of car I drove
What kind of house I lived in
How much money I had in the bank
Nor what my cloths looked like
BUT
The world may be a little better
Because, I was important
In the life of a child.​

Of course, the quote below by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross is my all-time favorite regarding children.

 

[EmMomma]

"lost is not alone"
Tim Miller

Ah...I was coming here to post this.
Comforting words, for sure...and very true...

 

[heartfortruth]

Can storied urn or animated bust
Back to its mansion call the fleeting breath?
Can Honour's voice provoke the silent dust,
Or Flattery soothe the dull cold ear of Death?

Perhaps in this neglected spot is laid
Some heart once pregnant with celestial fire;
Hands, that the rod of empire might have sway'd,
Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre:

But Knowledge to their eyes her ample page,
Rich with the spoils of time, did ne'er unroll;
Chill Penury repress'd their noble rage,
And froze the genial current of the soul.

Full many a gem of purest ray serene
The dark unfathom'd caves of ocean bear:
Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert air.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The Epitaph
Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
A youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown.
Fair Science frowned not on his humble birth,
And Melacholy marked him for her own.

Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere,
Heaven did a recompense as largely send:
He gave to Misery all he had, a tear,
He gained from Heaven ('twas all he wish'd) a friend.

No farther seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode
(There they alike in trembling hope repose),
The bosom of his Father and his God.

By Thomas Gray (1716-71). (some lines from "Elegy written in a Country Church Yard")

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile" - Albert Einstein

"How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light." - Barry Lopez

"The truth is always exciting. Speak it, then. Life is dull without it." - Pearl S. Buck

 

[Torsade]

I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be.
From a book I read to my little girl every night before bed. She's 19 now and it still goes inside each card we exchange.

 

[ThoughtElf]

Great choices, all. TY

Torsade, I also read that Robert Munsch book to my child all of her life, and have gifted it often to new Moms at showers. It's a pretty wonderful story.

I read this book to my daughter when she was little ... and she is 19 now too :clap: I just love this book!!!

“Do you not know that there comes a midnight hour when every one has to throw off his mask? Do you believe that life will always let itself be mocked? Do you think you can slip away a little before midnight in order to avoid this? Or are you not terrified by it?"

- Soren Kierkegaard
