Quote of the Week - 12/26/2007

"Pick a mountain in life to climb and don't stop til' you reach the top. When you reach the top...be lookin' for the next mountain to climb." -- Life philosophy of Helen Taylor

My Mom died 6 years ago today. I lost track of the times I heard from her, "climb that mountain", when life turned difficult. And the many times I responded, "I'm tired of climbing."

Never would have thought her mountain mantra would have such an impact in my life. That recalling those nagging words would continue to push me forward in life. Even after she's gone.

Still an inspiration, after all these years.

Thanks, Mom.
