Charles Schultz Philosophy

I received this in an e-mail and just had to share with everyone. Makes you think about your life and what is going on around you a little more.

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz , the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read straight through, and 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 Contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school...

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

The people who make a difference in your life are NOT the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones who care.

This is so true about the news today. Most of us try to write something life changing, well not all of us. Some of our writing does change lives but it's those around us who truly impact us. Think about the second quiz a little harder and be thankful for who and what you have.

"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia..."
