Congratulations to Quote of the Week Member, Jim Kerr,
who was inducted into National Radio Hall of Fame.
As the youngest person ever to host a NYC radio show, Jim began his NY radio career in 1974 on WPLJ in 1974 and has been a fixture on the NY radio dial ever since. He has interviewed the biggest names in rock music including John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Mick Jagger among countless others. He is now the longest running morning radio personality in NYC history. Along with his Radio Hosting Duties, Jim has also has also raised millions of dollars for community causes and charities and continues to do so. http://www.
On a personal note, Jim is also responsible for the creation of this On-Line Quote of the Week Community. I met Jim in 1985 and he was kind enough to feature Mr. Nolan’s Quote of the Week which aired every Monday Morning for many years. This eventually led to the creation of this weekly Quote of the Week which is it's 19th year. So this Rock and Roll quote by Journey is dedicated to Jim with my utmost respect and gratitude!

In honor of my mother's birthday today (she would have been 98) we have some old Estonian Folk Wisdom. She was born and raised in Tartu, Estonia and during WW II she escaped the Red Army’s Soviet reoccupation of Estonia. Facing an uncertain future, she left her home with just two suitcases and survived bomb attacks, starvation and other life threatening challenges. She eventually found her way to a small town in Germany where she found work in a hospital and then became an Interpreter for the US Army when they occupied the area. As luck would have it, she also met and married a young Lieutenant from Brooklyn, NY. and went on to raise a family in Queens before moving to New Jersey. Her story is one of survival, ingenuity and resilience.
"He who helps himself will be helped by others"
("Kes aitab ennast ise, seda aitavad ka teised.")

Struggling? A different perspective...
“It is okay to be at a place of struggle. Struggle is just another word for growth. Even the most evolved beings find themselves in a place of struggle now and then. In fact, struggle is a sure sign to them that they are expanding; it is their indication of real and important progress. The only one who doesn’t struggle is the one who doesn’t grow. So if you are struggling right now, see it as a terrific sign — celebrate your struggle.”
Neale Donald Walsh

On Spreading Kindness
“I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”

Take in the Moments
"Act in the moment, live in the present, slowly slowly don’t allow the past to interfere, and you will be surprised that life is such an eternal wonder, such a mysterious phenomenon and such a great gift that one simply feels constantly in gratitude." Osho
