?I firmly believe in small gestures: pay for their coffee, hold the door for strangers, over tip, smile or try to be kind even when you don?t feel like it, pay compliments, chase the kid?s runaway ball down the sidewalk and throw it back to him, try to be larger than you are? particularly when it?s difficult. People do notice, people appreciate. I appreciate it when it?s done to (for) me. Small gestures can be an effort, or actually go against our grain (?I?m not a big one for paying compliments??), but the irony is that almost every time you make them, you feel better about yourself. For a moment life suddenly feels lighter, a bit more Gene Kelly dancing in the rain.?

The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

Opportunities, many times, are so small that we glimpse them not and yet they are often the seeds of great enterprises. Opportunities are also everywhere and so you must always let your hook be hanging. When you least expect it, a great fish will swim by.
