[Saint Lucie]

actually I was reminiscing about my parents and in-laws! he he he!!

But, on a more positive note (and after many years of therapy and prozac- he he he!) I have the formula to life:

The most destructive habit......................Worry
The greatest Joy................................Giving
The greatest loss.....................Loss of self-respect

The most satisfying work....................Helping others
The ugliest personality trait...................Selfishness
The most endangered species..............Dedicated leaders

Our greatest natural resource................Our youth
The greatest "shot in the arm"..............Encouragement
The greatest problem to overcome....................Fear

The most effective sleeping pill........Peace of mind
The most crippling failure disease............Excuses
The most powerful force in life...................Love

The most dangerous pariah...................A gossiper
The world's most incredible computer...........The brain
The worst thing to be without....................Hope

The deadliest weapon.........................The tongue
The two most power-filled words............."I Can"
The greatest asset ..........................Faith

The most worthless emotion.....................Self-pity
The most beautiful attire..........................SMILE!
The most prized possession.......................Integrity

The most powerful channel of communication........Prayer
The most contagious spirit ...............Enthusiasm

Ms. Lucie, you've broken the code. What else could there possibly be to know?

Thanks for telling us that...I hope your words of wisdom help a lurker find their way to a better life.

(You've reminded me of a bad habit or two I could stand to lose!)
