Read THE SUN magazine

I love The Sun. Great writing, thought provoking, entertaining, and a real pleasure. Specific aspects of the journal that I particularly enjoy are: the photos, always B&W requiring viewer creative involvement; the sun interview which I don't always agree with or enjoy but presents an atypical journalistic approach to what's going on in the world; the poetry of course; the editor's Notebook, and the quotations page. It is this last delight that I include this post in the blog universe. I wanted to offered up a few of the quotes from the most recent issue of The Sun that seemingly spoke directly to me. I hope that they are of equal to greater value to anyone reading this. Enjoy and thank you Sun contributors for adding a little more meaning to my life.

If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment.

Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with hat you have left.
Hubert Humphrey

If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you have a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.
Robert Fulghum

If you do not know of The Sun, go out and look for it. Please support it by buying an issue or subscribing. I must take a moment here to thank my step-mother for thinking I'd appreciate the journal, because I will never be the same.

Of note completely unrelated to this entry: isn't it odd that the spell check within this blogger suggests that "blog" isn't a correctly spelt word? Interesting :-)
