We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature--trees, flowers, grass--grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...We need silence to be able to touch souls. --Mother Teresa

Ahh....The Best of Times

The memories all came flooding back.....I loved this commercial when I was a kid and we only had 3 channels!  We all knew this song and would sing it at recess over and over and over.  That's when we had real recess--you know--a hugongous expanse of asphalt covered with sky high slides and monkey bars and totally illegal merry-go-rounds.

We lived in perfect harmony.  Just sayin'.

I needed that today!! What a nice blast from the past. Coke has the best commercials--now I love the polar bears!

Dear, you forgot about the 4th channel. You know, the channel you could only get when one member of the family stood tip-toed on one foot, body splayed out to cover as much surface area as humanly possible, holding the antenna at that one particular angle.

That touched me in the deepest part of my heart. I especially like the indian, asian woman, and jock.
