All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle
and plant a flower wherever
the flower would grow
in thought and mind.
Abraham Lincoln
Reflect upon your present blessings,
of which every one has many;
not on your past misfortunes,
of which all have some.
Charles Dickens
When you arise in the morning,
think of what a precious privilege
it is to be alive - to breathe,
to think, to enjoy, to love.
