The Positive Side of Life

- Living on Earth is expensive, but it does include a free trip around the sun every year.
- Birthdays are good for you; the more you have, the longer you live.
- Happiness often comes through doors you didn't even know you left open.
- Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.
- You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.
- Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened.
- We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors.... but each has their usefulness and their place. They all exist very nicely in the same box.
- A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
- Working for God on earth does not pay much, but His Retirement plan is out of this world!

Simple things touch your heart more :)

Have you written it by your own or is it anyone else's property?

The last one is a clincher. That'll be one heck of a 401K.

BTW, I listened to Message of Mercy. GREAT STUFF! It's a very polished inspirational pop sound. My personal faves - Carried Away, and of course, the Blessings Remix got me groovin'. :)

Raheel, These words were shared with me in an e-mail forward. I have NO idea who wrote them. There were about 20 quotes, but I only posted the ones that I liked. :o)

Water Street Life, I visited your site and it's a GOOD thing you are doing. May God bless you!!

Marcel, thank you for the kind words about 'Message of Mercy'. The lead voice you hear on Carried Away & Blessings is me.
