Quote, prizes & great resources

-- Quote of the Day --


Talk happiness – The world is sad enough without your woes. No path is Always rough. Look for some smooth places and speak of those.
~ Unknown

For me, this quote is a reminder not to be a garbage dump truck and heave waste on other people :) Rarely do we realize the impact our emotions has on society, our families and co-workers. Just simply by offering a smile where ever we go we can brighten the city and lighten heavy hearts.
