  Thanks for your prayers and positive energy everyone. Anne Ganguzza's surgery (a double mastectomy) went well and all lymph nodes came back negative!

  Thank the good Lord!

  Happy New Year everyone!  A great quote to start us off - "The sky has never been the limit. We are our own limits. It’s then about breaking our personal limits and outgrowing ourselves to live our best lives.” - Unknown

  Thank you Penny, really needed to hear that and YOU ARE VERY SPECIAL. I was filling out my December report and well I didn't feel so special as the results are so low. Took a break and read your wonderful story about the $20. Wishing you a HAPPY NEW YEAR. Thank you for being so thoughtful and sending the story.

  FOOD 4 THOIUGHT

  A friend just posted this on Facebook and I wanted to pass it on to you!

  A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this." He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, "Who still wants it...?" Still the hands were up in the air. "Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
  
  "My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. You are special - Don't EVER forget it."

  Count your blessings, not your problems...Happy New Year - 2012

  
  

  Love,
