      The Frog's Blog

Hi friends. This blog is a labor of love and I want to continue writing every day for a long time to come. But I need a little help. The fees to maintain this website are getting costly for a little frog. If you enjoy reading my blogs, will you please donate a dollar or two, or whatever you can, to help me keep this site (and blog) up and running? I'm on PayPal at irwinquagmirewart@gmail.com. Thank you!

I read an interesting quote this morning...

I will make this blog brief. I know everybody has better things to do on this New Year's Eve than read the dribble from an often-wordy frog.
This morning I read a quote that really struck home with me. It read, "I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship." I wish I had said this. On this last day of 2015, I can say that it pretty much sums of how I see my life. There will always be difficulties and hardships in life...mine and yours...but that is how we learn and grow. We grow by navigating the chopping waters and, somehow or other, we manage to come out the other side of the storm, a better and stronger being. Whatever 2015 brought you, I hope that you navigated your storms well and learned from those challenges. My wish for everyone, in 2016, is smooth sailing. But, knowing that life always throws us a few curve balls, I must add to that wish;  I hope that whatever storms you do encounter, your ship is strong and sturdy; that you manage to "stay the course and emerge, from those dark clouds, as a kinder, more compassionate, and wiser person. Happy New Year! (See you back here on Monday, January 4th.)
