Let me have the courage to believe in myself

AUTHOR UNKNOWN

Let me have the courage to believe in myself
Not only on the days when I'm going great and nothing seems impossible,
But on the days when the world looks lousy and I'm losing.
And the road ahead seems too hard;
When I wonder if I'm brave enough, smart enough,
Strong enough, and I must be crazy if I try
Don't let me quit - Let me have courage in myself.
No matter how many people discourage me, doubt,
Laugh at me, warn me, think me a fool...
Don't let me listen. Let me hear another voice saying,
"You can do it,"... and, "You will."
If no one else in the world cares or believes in me...
Let me have the courage to believe in myself!

Dime among pennies

Oliver Wendell Holmes once attended a meeting in which he was the shortest man present.

"Dr. Holmes," quipped a friend, "I should think you'd feel rather small among us big fellows."

"I do," retorted Holmes, "I feel like a dime among a lot of pennies."

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Antoine de Saint Exupery

YOU TELL ON YOURSELF

YOU TELL ON YOURSELF
YOU TELL ON YOURSELF BY THE FRIENDS THAT YOU SEEK,
BY THE VERY MANNER IN WHICH YOU SPEAK,
BY THE WAY YOU EMPLOY YOUR LEISURE TIME,
BY THE USE YOU MAKE OF DOLLAR AND DIME.

YOU TELL WHAT YOU ARE BY THE THINGS YOU WEAR.
BY THE SPIRIT IN WHICH YOUR BURDENS YOU BEAR,
BY THE KIND OF THINGS AT WHICH YOU LAUGH,
BY THE MUSIC YOU PLAY ON THE PHONOGRAPH.

YOU TELL WHAT YOU ARE BY THE WAY YOU WALK
BY THE THINGS OF WHICH YOU LIKE TO TALK,
BY THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU BEAR DEFEAT,
BY SO SIMPLE A THING AS HOW YOU EAT.

BY THE BOOKS YOU CHOOSE
FROM THE SELL-FILLED SHELF;
SO THERE'S REALLY NO PARTICLE OF SENCE
IN AN EFFORT TO KEEP UP A FALSE PRETENSE

Real Mothers

Real Mothers don't eat quiche;

They don't have time to make it.

Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils

Are probably in the sandbox.

Real Mothers often have sticky floors,

Filthy ovens and happy kids.

Real Mothers know that dried play dough

Doesn't come out of carpets..

Real Mothers don't want to know what

The vacuum just sucked up.

Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?'

And get their answer when a little

Voice says, 'Because I love you best.'

Real Mothers know that a child's growth

Is not measured by height or years or grade...

It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother...

The Joy of Womanhood

This is one of the best talks I will never forget!

The Joy of Womanhood!

Why God created little girls

Author Unknown

God made the world with towering trees,
Majestic mountains and restless seas.
Then paused and said , "It needs one more thing...
Someone to laugh and dance and sing.
To walk in the wood and gather flowers...
To commune with nature in quiet hours."

So God made little girls
With laughing eyes and bouncing curls,
With joyful hearts and infectious smiles,
Enchanting ways and feminine wiles.
And when He'd completed the task He'd begun.
He was pleased and proud of the job He'd done.
For the world, when seen through little girl's eyes
Greatly resembled Paradise.
