I'll start this off again....
"You may be only one person in the entire world, but if you're really lucky you might be the entire world to one person."
.....now, follow this example, and please keep it nice.

I would really like to read some words to live by, other than what "I" post, by many great writers and poets!
Where or where are: "Sleeping Dragon", "Citizen starker", "Citizen CDay", "unckle fester", and many more?

A son is the promise that time makes to a man, the guarantee every father receives that whatever he holds dear will someday be considered foolish, and that the person he loves best in the world will misunderstand him.

Quotes for your life: The "Wolves" Inside Us
One evening, an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said:"My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, fase pride, superiority and ego.
The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:"Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."
This was sent to me and I am sharing these wise words with "you"!

I know that my Redeemer lives and He shall stand at last on the earth,
and after my skin is destroyed,
this I know;
that in my flesh I shall see God,
whom I shall see for myself
and my eyes shall behold, and not another's.
How my heart yearns within me.
-Job

~Job, one of my heros, dealt with more trials and saddness than "most" will ever know! Because of him, I have never lost hope! And could have that effect on many, if they would read about him, and learn from him.
One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak. ~ G. K. Chesterton
