Parents Are Like Shuttles On

In The External Scheme Of Things, Shining Moments Are As Brief As The Twinkling Of An Eye, Yet Such Twinklings Are What Eternity Is Made Of — Moments When We Human Beings Can Say, “i Love You” ... “i'm Proud Of You” ... “i Forgive You” ... “i'm Grateful For You” ... “whether You Win Anything Or Not, You Still Have Great Value.” That's What Eternity Is Made Of: Invisible, Imperishable Good Stuff.

When I Was A Boy I Used To Think That Strong Meant Having Big Muscles, Great Physical Power; But The Longer I Live, The More I Realize That Real Strength Has Much More To Do With What Is Not Seen. Real Strength Has To Do With Helping Others.

It's Really Easy To Fall Into The Trap Of Believing That What We Do Is More Important Than What We Are. Of Course, It's The Opposite That's True: What We Are Ultimately Determines What We Do!
