WITandWISDOM(tm) - April 20, 2001 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: Cultivate your own capabilities, your own style. Appreciate the members of your family for who they are, even though their outlook or style may be miles different from yours. Rabbits don't fly. Eagles don't swim. Ducks look funny trying to climb. Squirrels don't have feathers. Stop comparing. There's plenty of room in the forest. - Chuck Swindoll Source: The Funnies, andychaps_the-funnies- subscribe@egroups.com ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: "It is a fact of Christian experience that life is a series of troughs and peaks. In His efforts to get permanent possession of a soul, God relies on the troughs more than the peaks. And some of His special favorites have gone through longer and deeper troughs than anyone else." - Peter Marshall Source: The Timothy Report, Copyright (c) 2000 Swan Lake Communications, www.swanlake.twoffice.com ~~~~~~~ THIS & THAT: YOU MIGHT BE FROM GEORGIA, USA IF: Part 2 of 2 [4-13, 20] 17.
