An email from Jenny's twin sister, Becky...

12.19.2008

The following is an email from Jenny's twin sister Becky, which includes a few of Jenny's quotes (she used to send these quotes out in a "quote of the day" email):

"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back & realize they were big things." -Robert Brault

Jennifer Gibbs Bankston
December 5, 1974-December 19, 2007

Graham Gibbs Bankston
November 1, 2007-December 19, 2007

In remembrance & honor of Jenny & Graham Bankston we encourage you to light a candle today...and do something that Jenny would want you to do...
1. enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend
2. eat lots of candy!
3. SHOP! and don't feel guilty buying something you "really" like & would make you happy (or do the same for someone you care about)
4. take a moment to pet a dog you see someone walking on the street
5. call a friend you haven't talked to in a while
6. sing along to Christmas carols, no matter how bad you might sound
7. be extra friendly to a waiter, store clerk or neighbor
8. enjoy a nice glass of wine, or two...
9. smile, a lot
10. laugh, out loud

And one more quote that encompasses Jenny...

"Creativity, as has been said, consists largely of rearranging what we know in order to find out what we do not know. Hence, to think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted." - George Kneller
