Like tiny raindrops from heaven
Like the star - shaped snowflakes
Or the pebbles by the seashore
Each one unique in its shape and form
Each significant in value and beauty.
As millions of tiny raindrops fall
As multitudes of snowflakes come fluttering down
Of all the people on this earth
Thousands born each day
No two alike.
For every person there is a plan
Each has a unique role to play
A purpose destined for him by his Creator
Let no one deny you that purpose.
STEPHEN P. MICKEY
At age 20, we worry about what others think of us.
At 40, we don't care what they think of us. At 60, we discover they haven't been thinking of us at all.
--Ann Landers
