The more patient we are, the more understanding we become.

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

Another fresh new year is here . . . Another year to live! To banish worry, doubt, and fear, To love and laugh and give! This bright new year is given me To live each day with zest . . . To daily grow and try to be My highest and my best! I have the opportunity Once more to right some wrongs, To pray for peace, to plant a tree, And sing more joyful songs!

When we seek to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves.

To bear defeat with dignity, to accept criticism with poise, to receive honors with humility - these are marks of maturity and graciousness.

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

A cloudy day is no match for a sunny disposition.
