-- Quote of the Day --

“…Sometimes the best way to find out about true friendships is when something bad happens. …And I think you just have to realize that if you are always trying to have a positive impact on someone then your energy isn’t wasted. …If you do grow apart – that is OK… Don’t get upset about it; just think about it as something that needed to be there at the time. …One thing I do with my students is to teach them how to give back, such as writing a letter to the veteran’s hospital or care packages for the soldiers. The most important thing I can do right now is to teach the little ones that they can give back and they get so excited and look forward to what they can do next and then the parents get involved. …We can look at our neighbors to see how they are doing and if they need any help. …Don’t just hear a story and say “oh that’s sad”; we need to do something about it… be a mentor, a tutor or fill some need.”
