Words of Wisdom

Have you ever heard someone described as being “gifted”? . . . a gifted student? . . . a gifted musician? . . . a gifted athlete? We are all gifted in our own unique way. We all carry within us a special gift we alone can give the world.

We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves and we must believe we are gifted for something.

So, today, remember that you ARE gifted for something and inside you is a special gift only you can give the world.

With something to think about, make it a great day. The choice is yours.
