Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitudes toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it. Author: Chuck Swindoll


Poem Artwork

 
One man trips and falls
And proclaims, “Why did I walk at all
Another trips but searches for the reason for his fall
Upon finding it he simply makes an observance
So he will not make his fall an ongoing occurrence
One man said, “Man cannot fly”
Another said, “I can find a way if only I try”
His efforts turned out not in vain
For he invented what we now call an airplane
Man spent centuries declaring the world is flat
If you sail far enough you’ll drop off end and that is that
One man declared, “The world is round”
And that is exactly what he found
Think how man has grown and the things he has achieved
We now have comforts our forefathers would have never believed
It simply took someone who said, “I think I can”
This is the attitude of a successful man

We have become a consumer nation all factories shipped to China or other countries. Soon your dollar will be reduced to half its value, prices will skyrocket, If you look at your health care package and notice how much it has increased, surprise. Mine has doubled in 2 years. Who is paying for this free health care. Why are so many radicals in important positions in our Government and who is leading them? Has the FBI been silenced also?

The Ghost of Mavis by Mary Lynn Plaisance

Mavis asked, "Am I a ghost again? I don't remember being a ghost, but I know I was." Do you believe in reincarnation?

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
