Good Morning Friends,
?
Have you been able to make a difference in someone’s life this week? We all have the potential to have a positive impact on those whose paths we cross. How many times have each of us had a crazy, hectic and stressful day and then? someone came along and changed our attitude with a kind word or knowing glance. Please remember that our attitudes mirror what we receive back in life. So? Be Positive, Be Happy and most of all Be Yourself. Here are two of my favorite quotes that are reminders for me.

We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give.
Winston Churchill

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
Helen Keller

CHOICES TOO!
June 19, 2000
?
Everything you know is based on what has already happened in your life. And yet, your only influence right now is over things that have not yet happened.
The things that have already happened have gotten you to where you are right now. What you need to be concerned with, however, is where to go from here.
Because you're so intimately familiar with your own past, it may seem you have no choice but to continue moving in the same direction as before.
But that is not true.
Your future doesn't equal your past.
Right now, there are an infinite number of paths you can take. The one you're currently on is only one of them. Any of the rest is available to you.
If you're completely satisfied with where you're going, then, by all means keep on going that way. But there's no reason in the world you have to keep following that same path if it doesn't bring you full and lasting fulfillment.
Every moment you have a choice, regardless of what has happened before. Choose right now to move forward, positively, and confidently into your incredible future.

To each there own; but only at Wal-Mart.....rotfl
Horseback Riding
A guy decides to try horseback riding, even though he has
had no lessons or prior experience. He mounts the horse
unassisted and the horse immediately springs into motion.
It gallops along at a steady and rhythmic pace, but the
guy begins to slip from the saddle. In terror, he grabs
for the horse's mane but cannot seem to get a firm grip.
He tries to throw his arms around the horse's neck, but he
slides down the side of the horse anyway.
The horse gallops along, seemingly impervious to its slipping
rider. Finally, giving up his tentative grip, he leaps away from
the horse to try and throw himself to safety.
Unfortunately, his foot has become entangled in the stirrup
and he is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as
his head is battered against the ground, he is mere moments
away from unconsciousness when to his great fortune.....
? ? ? ?the Wal-Mart manager sees him and shuts the horse off.
