Reminder of the Important things in LIFE!
[IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0004/image001.gif[/IMG]
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the e-mail straight through and you'll get the point. 1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world. 2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners. 3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America. 4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize. 5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress. 6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners. [IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0005/image002.jpg[/IMG] How did you do? The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners. [IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0006/image003.gif[/IMG] Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one: 1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school. 2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time. 3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile. 4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciate d and special. 5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with . [IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0007/image004.gif[/IMG] Easier? The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care. [IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0008/image005.jpg[/IMG] "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia " (Charles Schultz) [IMG]aoladp://MA15244772-0009/image006.gif[/IMG] AOL now offers free email to everyone. Find out more about what's free from AOL at AOL.com.

Re: Reminder of the Important things in LIFE!
Of course we could mentioned alot of other important things in life. The thing was to remind us that when it comes down to it, people who are close to us are makes life the most enjoyable. That goes for Mates present and those who have passed on.
Folks who've touched us but are no longer around can still warm us with their smile, their voice, behavior, comedy, smells, etc.. I guess I was just sharing cause Accywebbers help me deal with "stuff" without even knowing it. I'm glad you guys have become part of me life    . Ya buch a gits! Brian
