The biggest mistake in helping undeserved kids is not raising the bar high enough. Children will believe if you believe in them.

The roses, the lovely notes, the dining and dancing are all welcome and splendid. But when the Godiva is gone, the gift of real love is having someone who'll go the distance with you. Someone who, when the wedding day limo breaks down, is willing to share a seat on the bus.

For me to live in a world that is not inclusive of other people who are not Christian would be the opposite of Christianity.

Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don't fight them. Just find a new way to stand.

What I know for sure is that it's only when you make the process your goal that the big dream can follow. That doesn't necessarily mean your process will necessarily lead you to wealth or fame. In fact, your dream may have nothing to do with tangible prosperity and everything to do with creating a life filled with joy, one with no regrets and a clear conscience. I've learned that wealth is a tool that gives you choices, but it can't compensate for a life not fully lived and it certainly can't create a sense of peace within you.

God can dream a better dream for you than you can!

Duct tape is like the force. It has a light side, and it holds the world together.
