Love is natural and unconditional.  Love asks no questions--neither preaching nor demanding; neither comparing nor measuring.  Love is--pure

the greatest value. . .

If there is no deep, internalized feeling of value inside of us, then we have nothing to give to or share with others.  We can need them, we can be dependent upon them, we can look for security in them, we can indulge them, flatter them and attempt to purchase them.  But we cannot share or give an emotion to anyone else, unless we first possess that emotion inside of us.

It simply makes no difference how good the rhetoric is or even how good the intentions are; if there is little or no trust, there is no foundation for permanent success.  Only basic goodness gives life to technique.

              pp. 21

Every adversity has the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit. 

Greatness comes to those who develop a burning desire to achieve high goals.

Success is achieved and maintained by those who keep on trying with PMA. (Positive Mental Attitude)

To become an expert achiever in any human activity, it takes practice . . .practice . . . practice.

Man's greatest power lies in the power .

Like the spoonful of sugar in Mary Poppins, I believe that a bit of laughter at the right moment helps the medicine go down. After a fallen tree has landed on your car, putting a sign on it that reads COMPACT CAR may not make the car whole again, but it will help you see a little differently.

Like the spoonful of sugar in Mary Poppins,

I believe that a bit of laughter at the right

moment helps the medicine go down.

After a fallen tree has landed on your car,

putting a sign on it that reads COMPACT

CAR may not make the car whole again,

but it will help you see your misfortune

a little differently.
