should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough
to disarm any hostility."

and a belief that he has some worthwhile thing to do. What
this is no one can tell him. It must be his own creation."

May you run and not walk to find your happiness. May you find who you really are. May you know that she never said it would be easy but that it would be WORTH it. I love you all. -Anne Marie Barton

to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard,
and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you."

Miscellany
Think big and act soon. Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside of them was superior to circumstance. All mankind is divided into three classes: those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move. --Benjamin Franklin Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more you sweat, the luckier you get. -- Ray Kroc |
