The man who can but doesn't has no advantage over the man who can't
"I've always believed in living to potential and not wasting talent and abilities. One day I came up with this quote to keep me motivated to keep going to grad school and earn my MBA from the U. of Georgia while working full time as an Air Force officer."

The cure for everything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea
"To get rid of my frustrations, I work up a sweat. When I hurt, I shed tears. To get back to a sense of calm and reality. I either think of, or visit the ocean and all its strength and beauty. Therefore the "salt water" is my cure for living, and I realize where I came from and who made me."

"I have always found this to be true. Most people who are smart and have a lot of knowledge like to talk but hardly ever listen to what someone else has to say. People who are wise listen to everything."

Helping others is the rent we pay for our room here on earth
"Reaching out, sometimes just a warm smile, can help brighten or make a big difference in someone's day. I am a stroke survivor (with a second chance at life) and I'm involved in online support. I was helped and inspired by strangers reaching out to help me. I learned to accept my deficits and can now help others."
