My thought for today...
I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.
I don't know who first said this, but I share the sentiment 100%. Boy - do I miss my parents. August was always a very special month in my life. That is, until a few years ago.
My elder sister, Margaretann, was born on August 2nd, my brother, Anthony, was born on August 3rd, and I was born on August 4th - also my parents' anniversary! My father's youngest sister was born on August 5th. All different years. All are now gone.
Indeed, I miss all of them and think about them on a daily basis. The great comfort and biggest joy now is I know they're watching over me.

Twitter Help - Finally!
Things I'm figuring out about Twitter (finally) ~
WOW. I'm finding meaningful reading in my quest to figure out how to navigate Twitter. Who knew? It dives into Javascript and other web-friendly, web-enhancing coding that I have been searching for for a long time. My web classes in college (and I say, or type, with great affection) didn't cover a lot of this information.
Twitter is an information network made up of 140-character messages called Tweets. It's a new and easy way to discover the latest news (“what’s happening”) related to subjects you care about.I love this. This means your messages have to be short. Can you handle it? :) But, they're subjects and issues YOU care about. Indeed, it's right up my alley.
Twitter contains information you will find valuable. Messages from users you choose to follow will show up on your homepage for you to read. It’s like being delivered a newspaper whose headlines you’ll always find interesting – you can discover news as it’s happening, learn more about topics that are important to you, and get the inside scoop in real time.Sure works for me! I follow Oprah, Dr. Oz, Deepak Chopra, Jean Chatzky, Barbara Walters, Tory Johnson...to name a few. I haven't tried to "build a voice" yet, until I understand more about how to navigate the site. My endeavor is to be careful, wary, and sensitive to others' feelings while keeping my own present, accounted for, and intact.

Oprah and her magazine - both great inspirations!
Always an inspiration, here is a quote found on the cover of the September 2010 issue of O Magazine, The Makeover Issue! Oprah has been inspiring me since the onset of her show in the mid-80s. I am grateful to and for her.
"What Wonders Can You Achieve? It's Time to Find Out" -- Oprah
