The optimist lives on the peninsula of infinite possibilities; the pessimist is stranded on the island of perpetual indecision.

Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings.

We can choose to throw stones, to stumble on them, to climb over them, or to build with them.

Every day is a good day to examine our prime-time priorities.

I have the opportunity, once more to right some wrongs, to pray for peace, to plant some trees, and sing more joyful songs.

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