Few of us will do the spectacular deeds of heroism that spread themselves across the pages of our newspapers in big black headlines. But we can all be heroic in the little things of everyday life. We can do the helpful things, say the kind words, meet our difficulties with courage and high hearts, stand up for the right when the cost is high, keep our word even though it means sacrifice, be a giver instead of a destroyer. Often this quiet, humble heroism is the greatest heroism of all.

Love is down to earth and it reaches to the highest star; it is the valey of humility and the mopuntaintop of ecstasy.

You visualize yourself as the person you want to be. You strive to make the ideal in your mind become a reality on the canvas of Time.

Words of encouragement fan the spark of genius into the flame of achievement. Legend tells us that Lincoln's dying mother called her small son to her bedside and whispered, 'Be somebody, Abe'.

Success is not arriving at the summit of a mountain as a final destination. It is a continuing upward spiral of progress. It is perpetual growth.

Don't point your finger to the heights your children should go. Start climbing and they will follow.

Prayer is thinking and thanking. It is thinking of our many blessings and accepting them with a thankful spirit.
