"IF LIFE WERE EASY, IT WOULDN'T BE DIFFICULT." (KERMIT the FROG)

Maybe the reason I'm drawn to quotes of all kinds is because I see my life written all over them.  Kermit's quote made me laugh heartily and wonder how a little frog could have it all figured out, when I struggle BIG TIME!  Maybe it's about not taking yourself so seriously, as I've done much of my life, but even when you do, to remind yourself that it's only a test and the key word is TRYING. That's been my mantra lately--keep trying, despite how lonely and painful it sometimes feels.  And the amazing thing is how things sometimes open up when you try, and trust. Opportunities that you never imagined!  Compassion that you didn't think existed anymore.  

Thank you Kermit and Jim Henson, his amazing creator, for making me a believer once again in the ebb and flow of life and the importance of laughter along the way. You bet it's true--"IF LIFE WERE EASY, IT WOULDN'T BE DIFFICULT!"
