A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your steps as you walk the tightrope of life.
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.
Success never resides in the world of weak wishes, but in the palace of purposeful plans and prayerful persistence.
We must be silent before we can listen. We must listen before we can learn. We must learn before we can prepare. We must prepare before we can serve. We must serve before we can lead.

To daily grow and try to be My highest and my best! I have the opportunity Once more to right some wrongs, To pray for peace, to plant a tree, And sing more joyful songs!
