Just Be YOU Baoku!

Most will love you for WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR THEM,
and some WON'T LIKE YOU AT ALL.”

ALWAYS BE A FIRST RATE VERSION OF YOURSELF
INSTEAD OF A SECOND RATE VERSION OF WHAT
SOMEONE ELSE WANTS YOU TO BE!

Happy FRIDAY Baoku!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT HAPPINESS ...
"When I was in grade school, they told me to write down what I wanted to be WHEN I GREW UP.
I wrote down "HAPPY".
They told me I didn't UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT.
I told them they didn't UNDERSTAND LIFE."
THE GREATEST HAPPINESS IN LIFE IS TO LOVE
AND TO BE LOVED IN RETURN!

Have a BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND Baoku!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS I LOVE BEING ME ...
"I can't run the fastest
I can't swim the sea
I can't type the quickest
but I love being me
I can't kick a ball
or even climb a tree
I can't roll in the grass
but I still love being me
You see, this is my life
as others would see
they don't know what it's like
to really be me
So next time I'm about
rolling down the street
don't think of me disabled
but someone cool to meet
I have lots I can teach you
I have loads I can share
you will never gain my wisdom
if you just point and stare
So maybe I can't run the fastest
maybe I can't kick a ball
but I wouldn't change being me
not for you, NOT AT ALL."
~ Gemma Hayton

Happy New Year Baoku!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE NEW YEAR ...
"Another fresh NEW YEAR is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And SING MORE JOYFUL SONGS!”
