This bright new year is given me

Skillful listening is the best remedy for loneliness, loquaciousness, and laryngitis.

The momentary thrill of getting rarely equals the lasting joy of giving.

Christmas is more that a time of festivities, family, and friends; it is a season of generosity, gladness, and gratitude.

Men never plan to be failures; they simply fail to plan to be successful

A friend is one who joyfully sings with you when you are on the mountaintop, and silently walks beside you through the valley.

Optimism is a seed sown in the soil of faith; pessimism is a seed hoarded in the vault of doubt.
