I’ve learned….

that the best classroom in the world

is at the feet of an elderly person.

I’ve learned….

that when you’re in love, it shows.

I’ve learned….

“You’ve made my day!” makes my day.

I’ve learned….

I make others feel better about themselves.

I’ve learned….

that having a child fall asleep in your

arms is one of the most peaceful

feelings in the world.

I’ve learned….

that what we have done for ourselves

alone dies with us. What we have done

for others and the world remains and

is immortal.

requires you to be, everyone needs a

I’ve learned….

that sometimes all a person needs is a

hand to hold and a heart to understand.
