I found a lot of meaning in this quote:

<em>"Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart."</em>

I failed to jot down the author's name. May I claim it?]]></description>

A quick phone call, the chance meeting in the grocery store or seeing one another in the mall (trying to get that much needed exercise) brings me a lot of joy. New technology has changed our industry and I intend to "keep up". Facebook, twitter, all the new avenues of communications will be a special focus in the next few months.]]></description>

We (Jim and Mike and I) are continually considering how to stay in contact with folks that might need real estate help.]]></description>

This year has been whirlwind of business activities. As President of the Spokane Association of REALTORS there has been a time commitment beyond what was anticipated. Goals have been met - more on that later. The exciting part of the year has been those clients that have met their goals! Even though there have disappointments because some homes have not sold, some have. Buyers are finding wonderful homes that fit their family's needs. There have been positive experiences in the market place.]]></description>

While both of us have formed our lives around our real estate business, we believe in volunteering. It’s the giving to those around us that gives us a quality life. Earning a living vs making a life.]]></description>

Another day, another year. In the blink of an eye life moves forward. In our private lives we make new goals, hoping to have learned from our past. While I won’t bore anyone with eternal goals like exercising more and eating healthier, maybe it is interesting to remember the things that were laughable last year.]]></description>

All of us at Linda Miller Real Estate want to wish you the very best holiday season. Jim and I are very blessed with energies for business, family and volunteer projects.]]></description>

All of us get those pesky sales people that sneak through the no-call list. Realtors are no exception. They offer us names of people that will surely guarantee huge commissions; web site magic that will draw absolutely everyone to <a href="http://www.lindamiller.com">www.lindamiller.com</a>; special gifts to give to clients so they will love me more than ever; and motivational sessions that will keep me working less and making more money!]]></description>

It made me think of all the cars I pass as I drive on our streets and highways. It's amazing how most of the time we get to our destinations without damage.
<br /><br />
It's the same thought process that took me to how we perceive news and situations about our real estate market and how the glass really is half full.]]></description>
