The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the 'Peanuts' comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions.
Just read straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners .
Here's another quiz.
See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with .
Easier?
The lesson:
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care .
Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.
'Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.
It's already tomorrow in Australia ' (Charles Schultz)
Aren't Friends and Family Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lee Roy...your performance in Greensboro Thursday night was absolutely wonderful. You and the band really played from the heart, and the audience connected. Also good seeing you at the Gibson Jam in Nashville last weekend, and I'm looking forward to the September Denbeigh Days gig.
Hey there Lee Roy. Been way too long since we have seen you to chat about our mutual friends. In the mean time, here is a youtube video of Norma Jean singing one of your favorite songs she does. Take care and hopefully we can catch up with you soon.
Your West Virginia friends,
John & Jackie Ross
I hope your tour is going well and your staying cool in all those hot little towns, and big cities :) I am very proud, because I am starting to build my portfolio with my mad makeup skillz ;) Check out my pics. I have my first photo up in my portfolio of the makeup work I did for a test shoot this past weekend. We kind of worked together on the hair, but it turned out good. Let me know what you think and feel free to leave a comment under the picture too! Take care and be safe!
