This is beautiful!!

This is beautiful!!
Charles Schultz,the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip.You don't have to actually answer the questions.Justread the e-mail straight through,you'll get the point.
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.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or PulitzerPrize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner forbest actor & actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Serieswinners.

How did you do? The point is, none of us remember theheadliners of yesterday.These are no second-rateachievers.They are the best in their fields.But the applause dies.Awards tarnish.         Acheivements are forgotten.Accolades and certificatesare buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey throughschool.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through adifficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you somethingworthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feelappreciated & special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.Easier?

The lesson: The people who make a differencein your life are not the ones with the mostcredentials,the most money, or the most awards.They are the ones that care.Think about  those peoplewho have made a difference in your life.
