Parents need to fill a child's bucket of self-esteem so high that the
rest of the world can't poke enough holes to drain it dry. - Alvin Price

Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got.
-- Janis Joplin

My friend James McClain once told me, "There is not enough time to wake up in a bad mood. Wake up happy!"

Sometimes, events in our lives are not what we want at the time. I always wanted things to be "my way". Now i know that God is planning my life and His plan is perfect. Everything that I ever questioned, I now know was all so perfect. If I could go back in time, I would not change a single thing, not one thing. My life is Perfect!

When you care about and contribute to the future of a child you are looking out for us all. Tell yourself: "This young person's future is our future."

BELIEVE :)

Everything happens for a reason. We may not know why certain events occur at the time; it may take a few days, months, or even years before their true meaning is revealed to us.
So stop "trying to find the reason"...it will be revealed when the time is right.

In finding my soulmate, I have discovered a seemingly bottomless desire to touch and change the world. Every smile I brew from a conversation with or thought of this person makes me want to spread our love two-fold out into the world...

My Dad often had us say, as we left the house each day: "Today is the greatest day of my life and tomorrow will be even better."

My husband never says "Have a nice day!"; rather he always says "Make it a great day!" It's up to you to decide how your day will go! I can't believe the number of people who respond so positively to that little statement!
