For new visitors to my site, please bear with me if you find a few broken links - I am in the process of a much needed revamping. Many changes have happened in my personal life and some pages are simply "past-history"! Most links do work, however, and the others will soon be replaced. But do let me know if you enjoy my pages! MY FAVORITE E-MAIL ADDRESS IS: justpam@earthlink.net - Click Here (And if you have written to me within the last two months, I had a "crash" on Netscape Mail and lost all of my e-mail, please send the important ones again!)


NEW - SUPER EXCITING NEWS ABOUT KARISSA - her trach has finally been removed - scroll down and click to her page!


May the launch of the year 2000 bring to each of you and your families peace and an optimistic outlook for the upcoming year and century. Cherish the special memories of the past and take with each of you the expectations of creating even more special memories within your hearts. Many people are lonely, no matter what time of year it is. Smiles and hugs can go a long way. (And a warm hot water bottle - oldfashioned, yes - can take the chill and loneliness off a a cold winter's or breezy's summer's night.) For personal enrichment, share of yourself during the new year, not of the materialistic items. Blessings from my home to each of yours.



FRIENDS ARE THE MARSHMALLOWS IN THE HOT CHOCOLATE OF LIFE! (Enjoy and savor!)



With our present times of trouble and strife in the world, a special quote was forwarded me me and I feel compelled to share this with all - it seems so appropriate -
"Great ideas, it has been said,
come into the world as gently as doves.
Perhaps, then, if we listen attentively
we shall hear amid the uproar of empires and nations
a faint flutter of wings,
the gentle stirring of life and hope."
- Albert Camus

Please join me and say a prayer for peace today.

Its time for a change,
Spring is on its way.
New hopes ahead,
New dreams to dream.







Share with me -
the beauty of the seasons,
romance in the air, a love of nature, a love of others, a love of self. Gaze on a tree, a cloud or a flower, a bird and its babies, the grass in its splendor.


Breathe in the energy of nature, give back energy in return.
Take some moments each day to be all alone,
To reflect on yourself,
The paths in your life,
The choices you made,
The choices ahead.




Give to others each day, let them share in your way.
Give a smile, give a nod, a bit of yourself.
The world can be lonely if there's no one to share,
Come share in Pam's Way, I'm one who does care.

This is the "real" me.






Be careful of your thoughts for they become your words. Be careful of your words for they become your actions. Be careful of your habits for they become your character. Be careful of your character for it becomes your destiny. (Author unknown)



How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it --
Make someone's day beautiful today


We may give without loving, but we cannot love without giving.

MY ANGEL LINKS

Come and spread your wings!


Walk softly,
Speak tenderly,
Pray ferverently.



There is no better exercise for the heart than reaching down and lifting someone up.


Deal with the faults of others as gently as you deal with your own.


When you are faced with a decision, make it as wisely as possible - and then forget it. The moment of absolute certainty never arrives. Choose as wisely as you are able at the time of your choice. No one can fault you for doing the best you are able at a particular time, given the circumstances. And, most of all, you musn't fault yourself either.


Every day is lost in which we do not learn something useful. We have no more noble nor more valuable possession than time.


They who trim themselves to suit everyone will soon whittle themselves away. Be true to yourself and your heart.


A friend is one who comes to you when all others leave.


You do not grow old - you become old by not growing.


One day at a time - this is enough.
Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone.
And do not be troubled about the future, for it is yet to come.
Live in the present and make it so beautiful
That it will be worth remembering.

Ida Scott Taylor





EVERYONE SMILES IN THE SAME LANGUAGE!!



Live each day to the fullest,
Get the most from each hour,
Each day and each age of your life.
Then you can look forward with confidence
and back without regret.
Be yourself -- but be your best self.



- And the last of my new pearls of wisdom -

LIFE IS FRAGILE - HANDLE WITH PRAYER.
Amen






LOVE AND PEACE


These are keys to a soul.
The eyes are the window to the soul.
Music unlocks the door to the soul.





What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters
compared to what lies within us.
