You Are Unique and Special!

[Guest guest]

  " You Are Unique and Special! "

" There will always be dreams grander or humbler than your own,

but there will never be a dream exactly like your own...for you

are unique and more wondrous than you know! "

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Everybody can be great...

" Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't

have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make

your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart

full of grace. A soul generated by love.

Luther King, Jr.

American Civil Rights Leader

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

When one door of happiness closes, another

opens; but often we look so long at the closed

door that we do not see the one which has

been opened for us.

Helen Keller

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Sometimes in life,

you find a special friend…

Someone who changes your life

simply by being a part of it…

Someone who makes you laugh

until you can't stop…

Someone who makes you believe

that there really is good in the world…

Someone who convinces you that there is

an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it…

This is forever friendship

and friendship has no end…

(author- Unknown)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of

intelligent people and the affection of children; to

earn the appreciation of honest critics and to

endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate

beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world

a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden

patch or a redeemed social condition; to know

even one life has breathed easier because you

have lived. This is to have succeeded.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Our greatest happiness in life does not depend

on the condition of life in which chance has

placed us, but is always the result of good

conscience, good health, occupation, and

freedom in all just pursuits.

- Jefferson

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I am only one

We don't need more money, we don't need

greater success or fame, we don't need the

perfect body or even the perfect mate. Right

now, at this very moment, we have a mind,

which is all the basic equipment we need to

achieve complete happiness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I find the great thing in this world is not so much

where we stand, as in what direction we are

moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must

sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes

against it, -- but we must sail, and not drift, nor

lie at anchor.

- Oliver Wendell Holmes
