The Meaning of Life
Perhaps you have seen those little gift books, the type you find in the queue at Borders or Hallmark, with little clever anecdotes or quotes about big-picture-type things, like sisterhood, mothers, teachers, golfing as a lifestyle... or the meaning of life. A good friend of mine suggested I borrow one that someone close to her had given her, and I read it with increasing happiness. I am hardly exaggerating when I say that each line was full of wisdom and inspiration. Please read the following exerpt once or twice and really let it sink in...
"It's incredibly draining to live through the day doing something you really don't enjoy or even care about. But if you follow your dreams, at least you will exhaust yourself doing what you love most...But best of all, ...you will inspire someone to go after their dreams, and that, my friend, is how you change the world!" -Bradley Trevor Greive, The Meaning of Life

Suze Orman on Dreams
Suze Orman was on PBS last night, giving a lecture, as well as involving the audience in a Q & A; various priceless points were made. (Who says there is no such thing as educational television?!) She was promoting her new book, The Money Class, and she talked about many of the things she goes into much greater detail in the publication, which all revolve around the American Dream.
Go to her website and watch the video about The Money Class. You will see how she plans to aid those who read her new book in creating their New American Dream out of the old and dead American Dream...
"We need to live in our truth. That's what dreams are made of."
-The Money Class, Suze Orman
