Thought for now ...
Press on. Nothing in the world can take the place of persitence. Talent will not; there is nothing more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
... Calvin Coolidge.

Thought for the day ...

Here's the image I'm considering for this December's holiday card. The view is of rooftops on Beacon Hill taken through a snowfall.
The alternative is the image in the December 12 entry below. But I'm not even sure it's mine, although I'm certain I edited it, perhaps extensively. It's a little cheerier.

Finally, I do think the way to a full and healthy life is to adopt the sensible system of "small helpings, no seconds, no snacking, and a little bit of everything." Above all - have a good time.
