Be generous with encouragement. It is verbal sunshine. It costs nothing, it warms hearts and enriches lives.

In every generation, the world is changed by a few people, who stand for something, do not fear unpopularity and dare to make a difference.

Love all of Gods creation, both the whole of it and every grain of sand. Love every leaf, every ray of Gods light. Dostoevsky

One of the best gifts you can give anyone is encouragement. If everyone received enough the world would blossom beyond our wildest dreams.

There's a huge difference between empty fatigue and gratifying tiredness. Life is too short. Invest in the things you deeply care about.

Want to change the world? Begin in your homes. Love your family. Pour into young people. Meet your neighbors. Seek the welfare of your city.
