Thought for the day

by

Do one good deed today.  No matter how small, you have no idea how much of a difference it might make. Look at your hubby, wife, your other/better half/#1 supporter, and tell them you love them.  Shower your kids with hugs and kisses.   Tell your family,  you’d be nothing without them.
