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.

God does not call us to rest seven days a week with our head in the sand. He calls us to make an impact wherever we are.

Yes, life can be rich down here. But never forget, the richest life is still to come.

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

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.

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."

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