A pause for reflection.

Life's Mirror

1. There are loyal hearts and there are spirits brave,There are souls that are tried and true,
2. Then give to the world the best you have,And the best will come back to you,
3. Give love, and love to your life will flow,A strength in your utmost need,
4. Have faith, and scores of hearts will show,Their faith in your word and deed,
5. For life is a mirror for king and for slave,It is just what you are and do,
6. Then give to the world the best you have,And the best will come back to you.
7. -Madge Bridges.

What Is Success ?

1. It's doing your job as best you can
2. And being just to your fellow man-
3. Not just making money, but holding friends
4. And staying true to your aims and ends,
5. It's figuring how and learning why,
6. And looking forward and thinking high;
7. And dreaming little and doing much;
8. It's keeping always in closest touch
9. With what is finest in word and deed;
10. It's being thorough, but making speed,
11. It's daring blithely the field of chance
12. While making of labor a brave romance.
13. It's going onward in spite of defeat
14. And fighting staunchly - but keeping sweet;
15. It's running the risks but playing fair
16. It's laughing lightly at Dame Despair
17. It's looking up at the stars above,
18. And drinking deeply of life and love
19. It's struggling on with the will to win
20. But taking losses with a cheerful grin.
21. It's sharing sorrow and work and mirth
22. And making better this good old earth
23. It's serving - striving through strain and stress
24. It's doing your noblest -- that's success!
25. -Berton Braley.

Forget It !

1. If you see a tall fellow ahead of the crowd,
2. A leader of men, marching fearless and proud
3. And you know of a tale whose telling aloud
4. Would cause his proud head to in anguish be bowed,
5. It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
6. If you know of a skeleton hidden away
7. In a chest and guarded and kept from the day
8. In the dark, and whose showing, whose sudden display
9. Would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay
10. It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
11. If you know of a thing that will darken the joy
12. Of a man or a woman, a girl or a boy
13. That will wipe out a smile, or the least way annoy
14. A fellow or cause any gladness to cloy,
15. It's a pretty good plan to forget it.
16. -Jud Mortimer Lewis.

1. Life is a grindstone, and whether it grinds a man down or polishes him up depends on the stuff he's made of.

1. He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.

1. The reason so many people do not recognize opportunity when they meet it is that it usually goes around wearing overalls and looking like hard work.

1. May the years ahead bring to you;
2. enough happiness to keep you sweet;
3. enough trials to keep you strong;
4. enough sorrow to keep you human;
5. enough failure to keep you humble;
6. enough success to keep you eager;
7. enough friends to give you comfort;
8. enough faith and courage in yourself
9. your business and your country to banish depression;
10. enough wealth to meet your needs;
11. enough determination to make each year
12. a better year than that just closed.
13. This is our wish for you!!!

Reality !

1. If you continue to do the same things
2. You may expect the same results!

Success

1. Success, the real success, does not depend upon the position you hold but upon how you carry yourself in that position.
2. -Theodore Roosevelt.
