The Ahlgren Family: May 2010

Mrs. Ahlgren needs to find blank paper for packing things up! Obituaries etc. are way too distracting. There was one lady who was 103 years old!

The "profile pic" is my sister and me laughing REALLY hard when we were 12 and 10.

Interesting Quotes

“Our modern world defined God as a ‘religious complex’ and laughed at the Ten Commandments as OLD FASHIONED. Then, through the laughter came the shattering thunder of the World War. And now a blood-drenched, bitter world — no longer laughing — cries for a way out. There is but one way out. It existed before it was engraven upon Tablets of Stone. It will exist when stone has crumbled. The Ten Commandments are not rules to obey as a personal favor to God. They are the fundamental principles without which mankind cannot live together. They are not laws — they are The Law.” ~Cecil B. DeMille

"It is not in the still calm of life, or in the repose of a pacific station, that great characters are formed. The habits of a vigorous mind are formed in contending with difficulties. Great necessities call out great virtues. When a mind is raised, and animated by the scenes that engage the heart, then those qualities which would otherwise lay dormant, wake into life and form the character of the hero and the statesman." Abigail Adams

"Work never hurt anyone, it's the lack of it that destroys us." Kathrine Hepburn

"It is common to the generations of men to see their contemporary situation as the norm and to assume that what they have always known is right and good, or else they would not have known it." Douglas Phillips
