Do You Regularly Reconsider What You Believe to be True?

From Denny: I've always found this quote to be true as time passes. If we are making the effort - well as taking the time to observe our personal inner growth - we notice this observation about our perception to be true.

Always take some time every week to reconsider what you believe to be true. You may be urprised when that small still voice of your spirit gives you an awareness of how Life is so many shades of gray rather than the dictatorial ease of only black and white!

Charm, Folly and Life!

From Denny: How often have we been wooed by the latest charm offensive of some deceitful politician trying to get our vote only to make us angry later for giving it to them? This quote will make you laugh it off!

Even the much hated President Nixon had at least one redeeming quality, as few people are only one-dimensional. Nixon played the piano handsomely for friends and family. It was like another person sat down at that piano and when the music played he was transformed into a decent guy. Sadly, the jovial attitude only lasted as long as the music... Well, I guess he is one politician who will never be accused of being too nice or boring. History seems to enjoy its villains.
