THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK
_________________________________________
You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now.
How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today,
but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.
- Dale Carnegie
