Don't despise yourself!

And don't let others despise you!

Really great people make you feel that you too can become great.

So some teachers are really not good ones.  They look down on you more than anyone else.  Yet they call themselves educators?  So watch out, pals!

you can do it!

You can do it.

Yes, you can do it. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

The love story of Ralph and Edna...

The love story of Ralph and Edna...

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.. 

Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool. Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. 

Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled him out. 

When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.

When she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love. I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.

The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead.'

Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?

love with all they have

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all  they have.
