Winning Words 4/21/10
“Never take someone for granted, because you might wake up some day and realize that you’ve lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones.” (Islamic quote) Maybe today’s that day to take an inventory of those diamonds in your life and determine to give them some special attention. ;-) Jack

FROM RI IN BOSTON: That quote is reminiscent of the story The Ugly Duckling...misjudging can lead to serious mistakes. It seems that we shouldn't question beginnings, but ought to dwell on endings instead.

FROM SH IN MICHIGAN: Thanks!!! I know what the first thing on my list to do is and will be giving some special attention all day.

FROM PRDL IN OREGON: Thanks, Jack, for being a diamond in so many lives! It's good to start the day with your optimism in mind!

FROM MO IN ILLINOIS: Certainly something to keep in mind! We may not even be aware that we have "lost" a diamond because we failed to nurture a relationship!! :-(

FROM MOLINER CF: "Diamonds are Man's best friend"
