Appreciation & Gratitude

“Appreciation is a wonderful thing: 

It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.” Voltaire

Air Show 2010

Today I am grateful to all those that have ever encouraged me in any way.  You never know how the smallest of details can be just the right amount of encouragement someone else needs.

Be grateful and pass if forward.

“Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.” Marcel Proust

"Gratitude is merely the secret hope of further favors." François Duc de La Rochefoucauld

“He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.” Epictetus
