Love is ...

"So many believe that it is love that grows, but it is the knowing that grows and love simply expands to contain it. Love is just the skin of knowing."

Quote of the morning ...

I've been at work for less than an hour and already I've got a quote for the day.

One of our more hands-on publishers walked through my department looking for his production manager just now. She's been out for a few days with some kind of sickness (as is half of our deparment). And then he tried to find her supervisor, who is in a meeting right now.

His response was: "What has America come to?!?!?"

read or overheard throughout my day ...

“It is not easy to become beautiful. It requires hard work, patience, and attention to detail. It also takes a certain firmness of purpose. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.” – Miss Piggy

"Who made YOU the come-and-go police?" - my co-worker to another co-worker

I will have failed if God is named, but not praised, analyzed but not glorified, seen but not sought.
