The Gift Of Miracles


Some very meaningful and powerful words worth saving for all to share.  May you find the following quotes the same as I thought.  Indeed with the love of God, hope is all we want for tomorrow!

"What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, 
and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: 
Our life is the creation of our mind."
~Buddha~ 
"By three methods we may learn wisdom: 
First, by reflection, which is noblest; 
Second, by imitation, which is easiest; 
and third by experience, which is the bitterest."
~ Confucius~
"Hope is the companion of power, and mother of success;
 for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles."
~Samuel Smiles~
