The
following is the philosophy
of Charles Schulz, the
creator of the ‘Peanuts’
comic strip.

You don’t have to actually
answer the questions. Just
ponder on them.

Just
read the e-mail straight
through, and you’ll get the
point.

 1. Name the five wealthiest
people in the world.

2.
Name the last five Heisman
trophy winners.

3.
Name the last five winners
of the Miss America pageant.

4.
Name ten people who have won
the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5.
Name the last half dozen
Academy Award winners for
best actor and actress.

6.
Name the last decade’s worth
of World Series winners.

How
did you do?

The
point is, none of us
remember the headliners of
yesterday.

These
are no second-rate
achievers.

They
are the best in their
fields.

But
the applause dies ..

Awards
tarnish …

Achievements
are forgotten.

Accolades
and certificates are buried
with their owners.

Here’s
another quiz. See how you do
on this one:

1. List a few teachers who
aided your journey through
school.

2.
Name three friends who have
helped you through a
difficult time.

3.
Name five people who have
taught you something
worthwhile.

4.
Think of a few people who
have made you feel
appreciated and special.

5.
Think of five people you
enjoy spending time with.

Easier?

The
lesson:

The
people who make a difference
in your life are not the
ones with the most credentials, the most
money … or the most
awards.

They
simply are the ones who care
the most

Pass
this on to those people
whom you keep close in
your heart.

“Don’t
worry about the world coming
to an end today. It’s
already tomorrow in
Australia!”

“Be Yourself.

Everyone Else Is Taken!”
