***Here are a few words of wisdom:     

Listen to these words from famous Lebanese poet Kahlil Gibran:
     You give but little when you give of your possessions.
     It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
Gibran isn't telling us to stop giving your old clothes to charity, or canned
goods to food drive. These things are important. He's saying that the
best way of giving is to give our time, skills, and energy to those in need,
and we can all give something. We can help a younger student with
homework, help an elderly neighbor or do an extra chore at home. We
can give time to someone who is lonely, or a smile to someone who is 
sad. According to Gibran, this is the highest form of giving.

Today, be generous and share yourself with others.

With something to think about, Make it a great day....or not. The choice is yours.
