Welcome to a new week and a very happy Monday to you! A interesting preseason opener last night. The Cowboys defense came to play and the final was 16-7 over the Bengals. Janice is a Patriot fan and their first game is Thursday night against the Saints. So go Pat's, a happy Janice is a happier Vic.
I mentioned it yesterday, the Hall of Fame Induction speeches not only told a story of their football career, but it also showed character and class. If you get to watch Floyd Little's and Emmitt's on You Tube. You will be glad you did.
A quote from Floyd Little's speech:
Don't listen to those that will judge you for your rough edges.
Don't focus on your weakness so you won't become a victim.
Find the goodness in you that says,
Yes, I can be a good student.
Yes, I can be a good son and daughter.
Yes, I can be a positive role model.
Yes, I can, because the good in you is better than the worst in most. The choice is yours. Be the best that you can be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Floyd also went onto also say:
The great writer James Baldwin said, Naked I came into this world and naked I shall leave.
We are bound to leave everything we accomplished in this lifetime behind, passing it on.
So leave a legacy that you and your family can be proud.
So what legacy are you leaving? I try to live by the Success quote by Emerson, found on Make ME Smile Online under the Our Mission Link. It helps me stay focused on what truly is important in this life. I encourage you to print it out. Hang it up and read it daily. It will make a difference not only in your life but the lives of those around you.
I will post it once again here:
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Enjoy your day, may you have a great week! Always try to post your smile, you will make a difference, first in yourself as you look in that mirror and then in the lives of others.
Some thoughts on sharing a smile, your smile with so many who come within your circle of influence.
