What does this mean to you?

Open Arms = Open Minds

I AM OPEN AND RECEPTIVE TO ALL THE GOOD AND ABUNDANCE IN THE UNIVERSE.

~THANK YOU LIFE!~

(*from Luise Hay's, You Can Heal Your Own Life)

Come to school with open arms, knowing there is NOTHING that you cannot become.

As you open you arms, you open your mind, opening up the size of your world.

~ Mr. Stuart

"I call myself a peaceful warrior, because the battles we fight are on the inside." - from the movie Peaceful Warrior

Honesty

Quotation of the Day

2. How do imagine you could employ its use in your own life?

3. Who is this old guy anyway? (What was the music he let play inside of him during his "In the blink of an eye" lifetime?)

Are the Happy, Lucky?

Quotation of the Day

The power of fortune is confessed only by the miserable, for the happy impute all their success to prudence or merit.

1. What does this quote mean to you?
2. How can you apply it to your own life, both now and in the future?
3. Who is this Jonathan Swift guy anyway?

Abe Lincoln

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
