National Teddy Bear Picnic Day

Life is like a football game. We may drop

the ball and be tackled, but we don't have to

wait until we get to the finish line to cheer.

Let's cheer now. It's great to be alive in the

game of life.

If your happiness is in things, you are destined

to be unhappy no matter how many things you

accumulate. There will always be something else

you could have a better car, television, cell phone,

and the lists go on. If you have to have things to be

happy, then you will never be happy, because there

will always be more things to add to your collection.

There are people who make things happen, people who watch things happen, and people who don't know anything happened.

What you need---

Goodness of heart

Compassionate feelings

Knowledge of what is needed

Willingness or desire to help

What you get---

A sense of accomplishment

An increased sense of personal worth

Think of it this way—Success is

Failure turned inside out.

YOU happen to life.

Life happens to you when you throw in the towel.

You happen to life when you get up again after

you've been knocked down.
