A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your steps as you walk the tightrope of life.

Too many of us hear without heeding, read without responding, confess without changing, profess without practicing, worship without witnessing, and seek without sharing.

As the valley gives height to the mountain, so can sorrow give meaning to pleasure; as the well is the source of the fountain, deep adversity can be a treasure.

The essence of life is to care. The beauty of life is to give.

Empathy feels these thoughts; your hurt is in my heart, your loss is in my prayers, your sorrow is in my soul, and your tears are in my eyes.

This bright new year is given me

The persistent winner is not discouraged by a problem - he is challenged by it.
