They say money attracts more money. Wouldn’t it be nice to find out? But in truth, prosperity isn’t about money anyway. It’s about feeling rich in happiness, love and positive experiences.
This is something you not only can have, you can multiply with the right approach.
Appreciate your friends, and new friends will arrive. Look for joy each day, and you’ll find more. Feel happy about all you have in life, and you’ll find your happiness grows.
Live ths way and you’ll end up with a wealth of prosperity that all the money in the world can’t buy.
 -Jane Powell-
‎" Humility is the solid foundation 
of all virtues,
 it is the ability to give up your pride 
and still retain your dignity 
and it is the only true wisdom 
by which we prepare our minds 
for all the possible changes of life."
Life is hard because we see the obstacles, 
not the goals..
Life is painful because we see the tears, 
not the smiles. 
People are rejected because we see their faults, 
not their righteous deeds... 
People are weak because we see their failures 
not their success.
 Look at the brighter side of things 
and the world will be worthwhile to live in....
Life is a heartbeat 
and the song of a bird. 
It's the voice of those you love 
and all the music you've ever heard.
Life is the most precious gift from God 
that you'll ever receive, 
and to live it to its fullest.
 "You can shed tears that he is gone, 
or you can smile because he has lived. 
You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back, 
or you can open your eyes and see all he's left. 

Your heart can be empty because you can't see him, 
or you can be full of the love you shared. 
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, 
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. 

You can remember her only that he is gone, 
or you can cherish his memory and let it live on. 
You can cry and close your mind, 
be empty and turn your back. 
Or you can do what he'd want: 
smile, open your eyes, love and go on."

 - David Harkins 

A youngster asked an old rich man how he made his money.

The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, "Well son, it was 1995. The depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing that apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents.

The next morning, I invested those ten cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them for 20 cents. I continued this system of polishing and selling, each time re- investing my profits into buying more apples."

"Wow!" said the young man, "and that's how you accumulated your fortune?"

"Nah", said the old man, then the fortunate thing happened...
