"Michelangelo once said, 'If you want to judge the quality of a sculpture, you throw it down a hill and see what remains of the piece.'The same thing can be said of ourselves; sometimes life throws us down a hill. And when we get to the bottom, we may be bruised, scratched, and most likely pieces of ourselves that we once held close are no longer there.But when the dust has settled, and we see what has remained, it is at that moment that we can judge the true quality of our character and what we value most in life."
If it didn't happen, it wasn't supposed to.
"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."
"To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own."
