“For me, a lovely day is any day I wake up.”

When my body gets to the point where I can no longer function or feel gratitude, then I’ll leave it and become grateful again. But until then, I will appreciate what I have and not whine about what I don’t have,

Take one role model, as often as needed. Set aside a few minutes today to fill this prescription so you will have it handy when you need it. Think now about who your role models have been. What do they offer?

I am convinced that unconditional love is the most powerful known stimulant of the immune system.

Animal intuitives can diagnose an animal’s physical health problems by listening to the animals.

Those who look on the world with love will need a handkerchief, not to use as a blindfold, but to blow their nose and dry their tears.

The simple truth is that happy people generally don’t get sick

You are in charge of your thoughts and feelings. If you are willing to search for the reason that you can’t let go of disturbing thoughts, you can learn about yourself and restore your own peace of mind.

Feelings aroused by the touch of someones hand, the sound of music, the smell of a flower, a beautiful sunset, a work of art, love, laughter, hope and faith – all work on both the unconscious and the conscious aspects of the self, and they have physiological consequences as well.

The doctor that acts out of love doesn’t burn out. He or she may get tired physically, but not emotionally.

Refusal to hope is nothing more than a decision to die.

I believe that we are here to contribute love to the planet – each of us in our own way

Hail, hail rock and roll / Deliver me from the days of old.

One day you’ll understand the sheer awesomeness that is me.

Happiness is your choice. You can choose today.

No matter what looms ahead, if you can eat today, enjoy the sunlight today, mix good cheer with friends today, enjoy it and bless God for it. Do not look back on happiness — or dream of it in the future. You are only sure of today; do not let yourself be cheated out of it.

I miss my son every day a little bit more, but I thank God every day for every second that he was here.

I admit, I don’t look like the athlete of the day’s supposed to look. My belly’s just a little big, my heinie’s just a little big, but, brother, I am bad, and they know I’m bad.
