Our possessions are a trust from God. What we clutch tightly, we lose. What we place in His hands, we will possess.

In the darkest of times, laughter helps revolutionize our perspective.

In a world characterized by loneliness and despair, we can reach out in love to those around us. Or, as St. Francis once said, we can "preach the gospel all the time; if necessary, use words."

Most of us, when asked to gauge the richness of our lives, think immediately of people. Those who have cried with us, laughed with us, and shaped who we are.

Rich people are those who know that the best is yet to come.

Our possessions are a trust from God. What we clutch tightly, we lose. What we place in His hands, we will possess.

There is no better friendship booster than the ability to listen. The ability to show genuine interest in others is an admirable quality of a true friend.
