Og Mandino’s book, “You Are the Greatest Miracle in the World”, reminds us:

 

“Most of us build prisons for ourselves and after we occupy them for a period of time we become accustomed to their walls and accept the false premise that we are incarcerated for life. As soon as that belief takes hold of us we abandon hope of ever doing more with our lives and of ever giving our dreams a chance to be fulfilled. We become puppets and begin to suffer living deaths.

 

It may be praiseworthy and noble to sacrifice your life to a cause or a business or the happiness of others. But if you are miserable and unfulfilled in that lifestyle, and know it, then to remain in it is a hypocrisy, a lie, and a rejection of the faith placed in you by your Creator."

 

“There are four laws of happiness and success.

1. Count your blessings

2. Proclaim your rarity.

3. Go another mile.

4. Use wisely your power of choice.

 

And one more, to fulfill the other four: Do all things with love - love for yourself, love for others, and love for God.

 

Wipe away your tears. Reach out, grasp my hand, and stand straight. Let me cut the grave cloths that have bound you.

 

This day you have been notified: YOU are the greatest miracle in the world.”

[thanks to Bruce M for the forward]
