I was talking to a friend of mine's little girl, and she said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?' She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.' 'Wow - what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'You don't have to wait until you're President to … (10 comments)

This re-blog comes compliments of the wonderful Midori Miller of Daytona Beach, Florida. Midori is a woman who truly appreciates all that we are lucky enough to have in this great country.

Okay, since I told Kristin Moran that I love MeMes, she stuck me with two of them this week :) Honestly, I do love them and think it is a great way to get to know our friends on Active Rain a little bit better. So, okay, here it goes - 1) I wanted to be a Realtor since I was 7 years old. I grew up in a single parent welfare family and always wanted to have that Great American Dream of Home Ownership - you know the white picket fence, the golden retriever, the whole thing (minus the kids). … (13 comments)

lisafriedmancom: Resilience - a must have quality
- 11/17/08 01:16 PM
Another great post from my friend Steve Hoffacker in Florida. Steve has some really amazing posts - you should check out his blog!
This post really resonates with me. As those of you who know me know my favorite mottos - "If anyone can, I can" and "No Guts, No Glory". I'll also add in that "Its not over until the very last breath". Steve's post exemplifies that having resilience and not giving up when the going gets tough is worth the hard earned reward at the end of the dark tunnel. Its interesting how what most of us refer to … (5 comments)
