Up again, you shall never be so afraid of a tumble.

There is no doubt that life can be a bumpy ride.

as well as physical, well-being.
In addition, your greatest value to your children,
your family, your friends, and your community
is the example you set, leading a great life that inspires
those around you to emulate your being.

The Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
- although attributed to St. Francis of Assisi,
this prayer first appeared (written in French) in 1912

No man is the whole of himself;
his friends are the rest of him.

than those of defeat,
but they are no less difficult.

Where there is unconditional love,

in what no one knew yesterday,

I believe that everything happens for a reason.
People change so that you can learn to let go,
