***Here are a few words of wisdom:

In 1955, an African -American seamstress named Rosa Parks sat in a bus 

in Montgomery, Alabama, and quietly refused to give up her seat to a white

man. She was arrested. Her arrest ignited the Civil Rights movement.

Her quiet heroism changed American history. Rosa Parks followed her

heart and took a stand for what she knew was right.

American poet and writer Ralph Waldo Emerson says:

    Heroism feels and never reasons and therefore is always right.

In other words, heroes act from their hearts.

Do you remember the root meaning of the word courage? It comes from 

the Latin cor, which means the heart. Rosa Parks acted from her heart-

with courage-and she became a great American hero. Every time you act

from the heart, you are being courageous. Today, remember Rosa Parks

and be courageous enough to do what's right.

 ***With something to think about, Make it a great day . . or not.

     The choice is yours.
