"Open up your box of sunshine
And smile as confetti comes raining down on you"
-from
"Collide" by Jars of Clay
I thought this was a wonderful quote.
"May you have warm words on a cold
evening, a full moon on a dark night, and the road downhill all the way your door."
"Walk towards the sunshine, and
the shadows will fall behind you."
"The best antiques are old friends."
Truths For Living

Ward
The more generous we are,

we become.
The more enthusiastic we are,
the more productive we become.
The more serving we are,
the
more prosperous we become.
The more outgoing we are,
the more helpful we become.
The more curious we are,
the more creative we become.
The more patient we are,
the more understanding we become.
The more persistent
we are,

The Few Things
You Really Need to Remember
Remember that
your presence is a present to the world.
Remember that you are a unique and unrepeatable creation.
Remember
that your life can be what you want it to be.
Remember to take the days just one at a time.
Remember to count
your blessings, not your troubles.
Remember that youll make it through whatever
comes along.
Remember
that most of the answers you need are within
you.
Remember those dreams waiting to be realized.
Remember
that decisions are too important to leave
to chance.
Remember to always reach for the best that is within you.
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist
on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all
things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Consult
Not Your Fears...
Pope John XXIII
"Consult not your fears
but your hopes and your dreams.
Think not about
your frustrations,
but about your unfulfilled potential.
Concern yourself
not with what you
tried and failed
in,
but with what it is still possible
for you to do."

The following quotes are from Mother Teresa
"I know God will not give me anything I
can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much."
"We, the unwilling, led by the unknowing,are doing the impossible
for the ungrateful. We have done so much,for so long,with so little,we are now qualified to do anything with nothing."
"Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your
strength lies."
"Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a
gift to that person, a beautiful thing."
"We sometimes feel that what we do is just a drop in the ocean,
but the ocean would be less because of that missing drop."
"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls."
"Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the
beginning of love."
"Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today.
Let us begin."
"The
fruit of silence is prayer
The fruit of prayer is faith
The fruit of faith is love
The fruit of love is service
The
fruit of service is peace."
"We can do no great things, only small things with great love."
"Suffering, pain, sorrow, humiliation, feelings of loneliness, are nothing but the kiss of Jesus, a sign
that you have come so close that He can kiss you."

Footprints in the Sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with
the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes
there were two sets of footprints,
other times there was one only.
This bothered me because I noticed that during
the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from anguish,
sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints,
so I said to the Lord,
You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But
I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life
there has only been one set of footprints in the sand.
Why,
when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?
The Lord replied,
The years
when you have seen only one set of footprints,
my child, is when I carried you.
