ParticipantThe news on TV, Radio and now interwebs is full of the drama, doom and gloom.
So, let’s celebrate the GOOD News stories, like the positive, uplifting, happy, and well down right motivational!

Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.
Meditation makes doing nothing quite respectable.

But for Mr Bernardi, success was a decades-long, uphill climb…

ParticipantOk, I’m on a roll…
Just saw this on the news.
When Gavin Sumner, 11, wrote his Christmas wish list last year for Santa, there wasn’t much on it. He had one very special request: new hands.
