The Best Part? This Quote (or something like it):
"Someday we all have to face the difficult decision between Choosing what is Right and what is Easy." Well Said DumbledoorWhy? What does this mean to me? It hits me as a Christian. My choices, morals, and values are very different from much of society. I do not judge society, friends, etc. who am I to do such a thing? I DO try my darndest to set myself apart, however, in areas such as boundaries in dating, keeping my speech uplifting, keeping a clear head to make conscious decisions (aka not drinking too much =) ) etc etc. It Is Not Easy. but it is who my God has created me to be, and I am Ever Thankful for it. I am thankful that I understand Biblical thoughts, and not just in my head. In my heart as well. Gotta go. I miss and love you all!
Wonderful =) and so true. and I'm not even a big fan of Peanuts!
Charles Schultz Philosophy
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards.
They are the ones that care.
Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.
"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia." (Charles Schultz)!
(personal from Jana) THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO CARES ABOUT ME! I feel it and appreciate it so much!
