something i Love in the Schaff house

"youth is not a time of life-it is a state of mind. nobody grows old living a number of years; people grow old by deserting their ideals. years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. worry, doubt, self distrust, fear and despair-these are the long, long years that bow the head and turn the glowing spirit back to dust.
whether 70 or 16, there is in every being's heart the love of wonder, the sweet amazement at the stars, the starlight things and thoughts, the undaunted challenge of events, the unfailing childlike appetite for what next, and the joy and game of life.
you are as young as your faith, as old as your doubts; as young as your self-confidence, and as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair."

C.J. 1969

So I try again, to do this blogging thing. I've been inspired (again) by a dear friend to do something that would make me feel great. And I need some kind of way to let everyone, and remind myself, what the heck is going on in my life.
It's been busy lately. And a little too chaotic. I'm hoping for it to quiet down.
Until then,
