Failure is not falling down but refusing to get up.

 

Always follow your own heart:

A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows public opinion

 

Your Kindness Magnifies many:

Make happy those who are near, and those who are far will come.

 

Be a Good Listener:

To listen well, is as powerful a means of influence as to talk well,
and is as essential to all true conversation.

 

Honor the voice of Experience:

To know the road ahead, ask those coming back.

Don’t busy yourself with things that have not been committed to your care.

 

God Grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change ~ Courage to change the person I can ~ And to know that is me...

A little boy opened the large old family Bible, and he looked with fascination at the ancient pages as he turned them one by one.

He was still in Genesis when something fell out of the Bible. He picked it up and looked at it closely. It was a very large old tree leaf that had been pressed between the pages of the Bible long ago."Momma, look what I found!" the boy called out.

"What do you have there?" his mother asked.

With astonishment in his voice, the young boy answered, "I think it's Adam's underwear!"

After  the  teenage  boy  got  in  trouble  once  too      often,  and  was  receiving  terrible  grades.....          the parents  decided  on  catholic  school  for  the lad.

Grades  came  in  some  months  later.  The  grades  were  all "A's".  The  parents  were  overjoyed  and  said  these  teachers  must  be  great !?!

"Not  really", said   the  boy.....just  everywhere  I look  I see that  previous  student  nailed  to  the  cross  and  know     they  mean  business.
