    My thought for today comes from Shirley12704 on her post in Help me get through treatment (They say we are brave).It is a wonderful post started by Saskia who lives in Western Australia. Take a few minutes and read their thoughts.

    "Ride on! Rough-shod if need be, smooth-shod if that will do, but ride on! Ride on over all obstacles, and win the race!".... Charles Dickens

    A good character is the best tombstone.

    Those who loved you and were helped

    by you will remember you when

    forget-me-nots have withered.

    Carve your name on hearts,

    not on marble.



    Charles H. Spurgeon

    Whatever you are facing today
    remember that God loves you more
    than you could begin to grasp.
    You are welcomed into His presence,
    just come as you are,
    you can even bring your coffee!

    "Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence.
    Talent will not; nothing is more commonplace then unsuccessful men with talent.
    Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
    Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
    Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent."..Calvin Coolidge

    There are two ways of spreading
    light; to be the candle or the mirror
    that reflects it.

    Through all around is darkness,
    Earthly joys have flown;
    My Savior whispers His promise
    Never to leave me alone.

    " For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
    For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
    For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
    For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
    For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone."

    Mind is the master planner that molds and makes
    And man is mind and forever more he takes,

    The tools of thought and shaping what he wills
    Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills

    He thinks in secret and it comes to pass
    His environment is but his looking glass!!!....James Allen

    He who thanks but with the lips

    Thanks but in part;

    The full, the true Thanksgiving

    Comes from the heart.

    Every tomorrow has two handles.

    We can take hold of it by the handle

    of anxiety, or by the handle of faith.

    This poem is on the American Cancer Society Cancer Survivor's Network Newsletter:

    Walk With A Friend
    Contributed by dazedconfused
    Author: Unknown


    I cannot ease your aching heart,
    nor take your pain away,
    but let me stay and take your hand
    and walk with you today!
    I'll listen when you need to talk;
    I'll wipe away your tears.
    I'll share your worries when they come;
    I'll help you face your fears.
    I'm here and I will stand by you,
    Each hill you have to climb,
    So take my hand, let's face the world;
    Live one day at a time!
    You're not alone, for I'm still here.
    I'll go that extra mile,
    and when your grief is easier,
    I'll help you learn to smile!

    I pray that each one of us is blessed with a friend like this

    Anne

    Anne, that is beautiful and thank goodness I am blessed with friends and family like that..


    Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth
    find reserves of strength that
    will endure as long as life lasts.
