“When we become more fully aware that our success is due in large measure to the loyalty, helpfulness, and encouragement we have received from others, our desire grows to pass on similar gifts. Gratitude spurs us on to prove ourselves worthy of what others have done for us. The spirit of gratitude is a powerful energizer.” — Wilferd A. Peterson

Beautiful post. The first half describes my whole attitude of life. I was abandoned at an early age but the encouragement from people, even strangers gave me the will to keep going and do well. Now I try to be encouraging to all because I never know when I might be encouraging to just the right person. Your webpage is also encouraging to me. ❤

Thank you. It definitely took “a village” to raise me and I will always be grateful to those people and the kindnesses and encouragement that have come my way since. You are a great encouragement to us Sharon.
