To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of people;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived
This is to have succeeded.
-Bessie Stanley & Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy Groundhog's Day from Leo
Happy Groundhog's Day! I'm Leo. My mommy and daddy think I bear striking resemblance to Punxsutawney Phil, the world's most famous weatherman and the only one who is also a humble little groundhog. They thought it would be hilarious to humiliate me by comparing me to this fatty of a rodent who "predicts" the weather by "seeing his shadow" and miraculously draws thousands of people annually to the small town of Punxsutawney, PA to witness the event. I simply don't see the resemblance. Do you?
