Let's Play Two - an Ernie Banks Happy

Happy S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night my Happy clan!  I hope you all had a splederific day and your evening has been sensational :)  I had a very nice Saturday, even though my sister, brother-in-law and 2 nephews had to head back home this morning.  It really is so hard saying goodbye - which is why you should never say goodbye since it never really is goodbye, it's always "see you later"!  And remember, it's also okay to cry - a good cry can be quite cleansing!

Sadly, we also had to say "See you later" to Mr. Sunshine himself, Ernie Banks.  I was very saddened to hear of his passing - but found myself quickly welling up with tears of happiness and joy as opposed to sadness.  Why?  Because I started thinking of all the amazing things that Ernie has done!  I mean, he truly was Mr. Cub and I firmly believe he is the greatest Cubs player ... EVER!!!  He will truly be missed but knowing he is up in Heaven shining down on Wrigley, the Cubs and all us Cubbie fans makes me smile!

I thought we could have a little tribute to Ernie Banks today so in honor of all the Sunshine and Happiness he always passed on to everyone today's Happy will be Ernie quotes :)

"You must try to generate happiness within yourself.  If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace."

"But it all comes down to friendship, treating people right!"

"Loyalty and friendship, which is to me the same, created all the wealth that I've ever thought I'd have!"

"The only way to prove that you're a good sport is to lose."

Thank you Ernie for all the amazing moments and memories you have given us Cub fans and for all the happy and positive words of wisdom you left us as well!!  He definitely deserved the Mr. Sunshine nickname!!!  I hope you all enjoyed these great quotes and remember them for always and until tomorrow, keep smiling and spreading that love!!

Peace, Love and Happiness!

Karen :)
