Rules to live by

Just because you can......doesn't mean you should.

Life is not fair; but you can be. ------Tom Selleck    Feb. 16, 2001

Ambition and greed are caused by fear.

Encourage one another to outbursts of love and good deeds.  Hebrews 10:24

Kindness is loving people more than they deserve.

Life is short.....it is up to you to make it sweet.

Whatever you are, be a good one.    -------Abraham Lincoln

You are made in the image of God.  Don't tear up the package!

There are not exits in Hell.

Best golden rule

Do unto others as you would have them do unto your grandchildren.

Luck & Experience

You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.
The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck!

Company of those you keep

Keep company with those you make you better.

Surround yourself with those who respect you and value your oninion.

Tell me who you love and I will tell you who you are.

If the whole world was as good as you....would this world be a better place?

Afraid

I am not afraid of heights.
I am afraid of widths.
-------Todd lawson

Senility Prayer

God grant me.......
the senility to forget the people I never liked,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do like,
And the eyesight to tell the difference!

Every child

Do your eyes light up when your children enter the room?  Did you actually hear them?
Did what they had to say mean anything to you?  That's all they are looking for.  That is what every child is looking for.

Faith

As your faith is strengthened, you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit.


---Emmanuel Teney

Heartbreak

Do you know how much heartbreak you haven't had....... by not giving your heart to the wrong person impatiently?

Birthdays

Birthdays are good for you.  Statistics show that the people who have the most, live the longest!

Reflection

If your reflection showed who you are inside,   what would you see?

"why?"

Children who automatically ask questions as part of their daily routine, are primed for higher order thinking skills.  When they ask "why?" tell them!  Stop for a quick second to explain.

Grateful

I'm grateful to be able to choose NOT to create my own misery today.

special children

It is not blindness to think your own child is special; it is blindness to think that somebody else's isn't.
