QUOTE of the WEEK:
"We won't always know whose lives we touched and made better for our having cared, because actions sometimes have unforeseen ramifications. What's important is that you do care and you act."

THOUGHT for Your WEEK
Are You Dynamic
By Emmet Fox
What is a dynamic person?
Many people think they would like to be what is called dynamic but it does not appear that they always have a very clear idea of what that expression really means. Sometimes they think it means being somewhat aggressive and noisy, or even bombastic, in manner. In other cases, they seem to think it means drawing attention to themselves in some less blatant but equally effective way. In reality nothing could be farther from the truth.
A dynamic person is a person who really makes a difference in the world; who does something that changes things or people. The magnitude of the work done may not be very great, but the fact still remains that the world is a little different because that person has lived and worked. That is a dynamic person.
Dynamic people like St. Paul or Washington, or Napoleon, change the lives and destinies of millions of people, and their work is known to all; but there are many men and women up and down the country whose works are not well known or known at all, and yet on their own scale they are dynamic, because they have actually changed the world in even a small way.
If you really get something done, no matter how small a thing it may be, you are dynamic, and the world is different because you lived in t. If you are only pretending to do things or talking about them, or building up appearances, you are not dynamic; you are play acting.

QUOTES for Your WEEK
It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.
Tom Brokaw
We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.
Marian Wright Edelman
The truth is anyone can be the difference; all it takes is using whatever you have, to do whatever you can.
Darius Graham
The greatest success we'll know is helping OTHERS succeed and grow.
Gregory Scott Reid
We can do no great things, only small things with great love.
Mother Teresa
As far as service goes, it can take the form of a million things. To do service, you don't have to be a doctor working in the slums for free, or become a social worker. Your position in life and what you do doesn't matter as much as how you do what you do.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
I hope you will judge yourselves not on your professional accomplishments alone, but also on how well you have addressed the world's deepest inequities…on how well you treated people a world away who have nothing in common with you but your humanity.
Bill Gates
