CURIOSITY
Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in the quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. #<Author:0x000055aa4fcb32f8>
APPRECIATION
When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us. #<Author:0x000055aa4fc298c8>

DO THY BEST

LEADERSHIP
Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are to some extent a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece by thought, choice, courage and determination. #<Author:0x000055aa4fe2a5c8>
CHARACTER
When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed. #<Author:0x000055aa4fdbac50>
PEACE
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go. #<Author:0x000055aa4fed2318>
LITERACY

HUMILITY

CONFIDENCE
The body is like a piano, and happiness is like music. It is needful to have the instrument in good order. #<Author:0x000055aa4ff510a0>
HEALTH
Find life experiences and swallow them whole. Travel. Meet many people. Exhaust yourself in the glorious pursuit of life. #<Author:0x000055aa4ffe2b40>
LIVE LIFE
Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit. #<Author:0x000055aa4ffb8a20>
