Enthusiasm

My amazing friend Kristen sent this via email today, and I loved it.
"A mother should give her children a superabundance of enthusiasm, that after they have lost all they are sure to lose in mixing with the world, enough may still remain to prompt and support them through great actions." — Julius C. Hare (1795-1855) English Cleric
She said:
"I love this quote….and think that the word “mother” might be easily replaced by the word “leader” or “friend”. Let us strive to give the people around us a bit of a re-charge today by letting our own enthusiasm and excitement for life shine and show!"

Thanks Kristen! You never fail to make me smile and feel more optimistic about my life!
