Quizzes.....................

My sweetie forwarded me an e-mail with two quizzes.  One could
Google the answers to the first quiz, but I suspect that is not the
point here.  

Quiz One:

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman Trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America Pageant.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best
Actor and Actress...
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series Winners..

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.
These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their
fields. But, the applause dies, awards tarnish, achievements
are forgotten, accolades and certificates are buried with their
owners

Here's Quiz Two. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few favorite teachers who aided your journey
through school.

2. Name three friends who helped you through difficult times.

3. Name five people who have taught you something
worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel
appreciated and special!

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

6.  Name a half dozen heroes whose stories have inspired
you.

Easier?    The Lesson:  The people who make a difference in
your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most
money, or the most awards. They simply are the Ones who
care the most!

This arrived under the heading of "Charles Shultz Philosophy." 
Googling Charles Shultz Philosophy, we are led to the snopes
site that tells us that Charles Shulz, the creator of Peanuts, did
not in fact write this.  With the Intertunnel being what it is, who
knows?  And..........does it really matter anyway?

Thanks Sweetie!
