STUFF THAT INSPIRES ME....
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can
change the world; indeed,  it 's the only thing that ever does." - Margaret
Mead

"love much... be strong.... ain't that what it is all about???" Shannon Brady

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the
affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and
endure betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in
others, to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a
garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has
breathed easier because you have lived.  This is to have succeeded."
-ralph waldo emerson
