"Twenty years from now
you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn't do
than the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails
Explore. Dream. Discover."
Mark Twain.
Here is a test to find out whether your mission on earth is finished:
If you are alive it isn’t.

If you are looking for some inspiration, here are some actual quotes that we have engraved for our Customers (in no particular order)
If I was a tree majestic and tall,
you'd be the reason I tremble and fall,
You'd be the bird and I'd be the tree,
somewhere to feel warm, loved and free
How long will I love you?
As long as stars are above you.
When someone becomes a memory that memory becomes a treasure
Yesterday is gone
Tomorrow has not yet come
We have only today, so let us begin
"Well, I am an extremely beautiful person."
“The most wasted of all days is one without laughter”
Somewhere in time's own space, there must be some sweet pastured place,
Where creeks sing and tall trees grow, some paradise where horses go,
For the love that guided my pen, I know great horses live again.
A tribute precious and tender
Just to say we will always remember
Though absent, you're always here
Still loved, still missed and very dear
Cheers to the beers, hail to the ale
"Man, being reasonable, must get drunk, best of life is but intoxication."
Goodbye's are not forever
Goodbye's are not the end
they simply mean
WE WILL MISS YOU
"So many things are possible...just as long as you don't know they're impossible".
The biggest lie I tell myself: "I don’t need to write that down, I’ll remember it."
Wouldn’t it be great if we could put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, come out wrinkle-free and three sizes smaller.
Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven’t met yet.
I don’t trip over things, I do random gravity checks.
I don’t need anger management. I need people to stop pissing me off.
Old age is coming at a really bad time.
Lord grant me the strength to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and friends to post my bail when I finally snap!
I don’t have white hair. I have “wisdom highlights”.
My people skills are just fine. It’s my tolerance of idiots that needs work.
If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would’ve put them on my knees.
The kids text me “plz” which is shorter than "please". I text back “no” which is shorter than “yes” .
I’m going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I’ll do the second week....
Of course I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.
Oops! Did I roll my eyes out loud?
At my age “Getting lucky” means walking into a room and remembering what I came in for.
Chocolate comes from cocoa which is a tree … that makes it a plant which means … chocolate is salad!
Have I sent this to you already… or did you send it to me?
"Reality is an illusion created by a lack of alcohol"
Nothing is so precious as the memory that lives on
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Don't count the days, Make the days count
Life is like a camera.....Focus on what is important.
Capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out, take another shot.

family holidays at the coast
