Nole! Nole!

fairly uneventful day.  no long walk.  no swimming.  Steve stopped for a quick visit. i finally got a few messes tidied up but created several more in the process.   i did enjoy watching some US Open tennis and look forward to watching Andy Murray in the semi-finals again Nadal. tonite's match between Andy Roddick and Novak Djokovic was fun to watch.  not much was said about Johnny Mac jinxing Roddick by prematurely saying the match would go five sets.  Nole won in a 4-set tiebreak. i received a new Inspector Morse dvd, Last Seen Wearing, in the mail so that will probably put me to sleep.  tomorrow will be . . . another day.

today's thought comes from Jack Kornfield's The Art of Forgiveness, Lovingkindness and Peace:

Forgiveness means giving up all hope of a better past.  
                                                                         
In the end, forgiveness simply means never putting another person out of our heart.

~If you let go a little
  you will have a little happiness
  If you let go a lot
  you will have a lot of happiness
  If you let go completely
  you will be free.
                          Ajahn Chah

In the end, when we look back at our life,
the question will be simple:
   Did i live fully?
   Did i love well?
