****** drips of honey...for your coffee, tea and soul...*******
think big thoughts, but relish small pleasures...
smile a lot. it costs nothing and is beyond price...
learn to listen. opportunity sometimes knocks very softly...
stop and read historical roadside markers...
never deprive someone of hope; it might be all they have...
dont waste time or energy responding to your critics...
be tough minded but tenderhearted...
avoid like the plague, negative people...

a few drips of wisdom...fresh from the hive...
don"t waste time grieving over past mistakes. learn from them and move on.
commit yourself to constant self-improvement.
be tough minded, but tenderhearted.
think big thoughts, but relish small pleasures.
