Music:

Movies:

movies: pretty moving pictures that harbour crazy soundtracks and the like.

Books:

thoughts that change the world AND entertain at the same time.

.attitudes.


"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company . . . a church . . . a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude . . . I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me, and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you . . . we are in charge of our Attitudes. --Charles Swindoll
