One of my favorites......."If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change how you think about it"

The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don’t tell you what to see.

When you make a decision, you have a 50 percent chance it's the right decision.
When you can't/don't make a decision, you have a zero percent chance it's right!

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

The goal of life should be to die with memories, not dreams.

A Story with a Moral...

A boy went to the Principal and said "Ma'am, I won't be coming to School anymore.”
The Principal responded “But why?”
The boy said, “Ah! I saw a teacher speaking badly of another teacher. Another teacher can't read well. The staff is not good. Students aren't kind to each other. There are so many wrong things happening in the Schooĺ.”

The Principal replied, “OK. But before you go, do me a favor. Take a glass full of water and walk three times around the School without spilling a drop on the floor. Afterwards, you may leave the school if you desire.”
The boy thought that should be easy enough.
And the boy walked three times around as the Principal had asked. When he finished, he told the Principal he was ready to leave.
The Principal asked, “When you were walking around the School, did you see a Teacher speaking bad about another Teacher?”
The youth replied “no.”
“Did you see any students being unkind?”
“No”
“You know why?”
“No”
“You were focused on the glass. You were focused on making sure you didn't spill any water. It's the same with life. When our focus is on our priorities , we don't have time to see the mistakes of others.”

Moral:
We should concentrate more on our priorities and not on others mistakes. Don't let the dysfunction of the world distract you.
