***Here are a few words of wisdom:
Thomas Carlyle was a famous Scottish writer, There's an amazing story
about this man.
After completing the fist volume of his most famous book, painstakingly
produced by hand (remember, this was one hundred fifty years before
computers), he bundled up the manuscript and handed it to a good friend
to read. A few days later, the friend's servant used the manuscript to start
a fire. The book and years of hard word were destroyed.
Days later, as he sat, sad and depressed, he watched a stonemason
building a wall . . . brick by brick by brick, hour by hour. This inspired him,
and he began to rebuild his book.
All of us, at some time , experience a great loss. But, whether the loss is
great or small, if we persevere like Thomas Carlyle, we can rewrite the
pages of our lives. So don't give up in the face of loss and disappointment.
Remember , there's a masterpiece inside you waiting to be created or
maybe recreated.
***With something to think about, Make it a great day . . or not.
The choice is yours.
