Try adopting just one of these every day and see if your life doesn’t get better.
Under everyone’s hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved.
To ignore the facts does not change the facts.
When you plan to get even with someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you.
Love, not time, heals all wounds.
The easiest way for me to grow as a person is to surround myself with people smarter than I am.
I can’t choose how I feel, but I can choose what I do about it.
When your newly born grandchild holds your little finger in his little fist, that you’re hooked for life.
The less time I have to work with, the more things I get done.

The local news station was interviewing an 84-year-old lady because she had just gotten married — for the fourth time.
The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 84, and then about her new husband’s occupation.
“He’s a funeral director,” she answered.
“Interesting,” the newsman thought.
He then asked her if she wouldn’t mind telling him a little about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.
She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those years. After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she first married a banker when she was in her early 20′s, then a circus ringmaster when in her 40′s, later on a preacher when in her 60′s, and now, in her 80′s, a funeral director.
The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked why she had married four men with such diverse careers.
“Easy, son,” she smiled. “I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go!”

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer.
“Look,” he said in a whisper. “I’ll give you $100 if you’ll change the wedding vows. When you get to me and the part where I’m to promise to ‘love, honor and obey’ and ‘forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever,’ I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave that part out.” He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied.
On the day of the wedding, the minister got to the part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. But when it came time for the groom’s vows, the pastor looks the young man in the eye and says, “Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?”
The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, “I do.”
The groom leaned toward the pastor and hissed, “I thought we had a deal.”
The pastor put the $100 bill into his hand and whispered back, “She made me a much better offer.”
