Inspirational Podcast Excerpt : The most beautiful thing on this earth, that which every human being craves most is love. The mere suggestion of life without it is unthinkable — for life is love. Where love is not there is no life. There is only its semblance. The saddest situation in life, one where most of us would be tempted to play the coward, is the feeling that nobody cares what becomes of us — whether we win or lose in the great game of life. As long as there is someone who cares, the motive is not all gone. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
