Section 1. Quote of the month
"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop
your strength. When you go through hardship and decide not
to surrender, that is strength."
Author: Arnold Schwarzenegger

Section 2. Story Of The Month (with a meaningful lesson)
A Long time ago, there was a son who was extraordinarily
respectful to his father. On his deathbed the father said:
"My son, you honored me in my life time and now you must
honor me after my death. I command you, if you should ever
be overcome by anger you should hold back you angry until
the next morning. After his father's death, the son was
forced to embark on a prolonged journey, which took him to
distant lands for tens of years. Unbeknownst to him, the
wife he left behind was expecting his child. After his
years of absence, the husband returned home unannounced,
hoping to joyously surprise his wife. But as he approached
his bedchamber he saw his wife embracing a handsome young
man, a stranger. The husband became fiercely jealous and
reached for his dagger - when he suddenly remembered the
pledge he made to his father: He must hold back his rage
overnight. The next day he was shocked to discover that the
young man in his wife's embrace was none other than his own
son, the child that his wife had borne during his long
absence. The man was thus saved from tragically slaughtering
his own family.

Section 3. The Road To Success Is Paved With Failure
Charles Conrad flunked out of Haverford, a prestigious private
boys school in Pennsylvania, where he was known as a prankster
who hid in drainpipes and blow up Bunsen burners in the science
lab.
In 1969, as commander of Apollo 12, Charles Conrad became the
third astronaut to walk the moon.

Section 4. Humor
When Bob's printer type began to grow faint, he called a
local repair shop where a friendly man informed him that the
printer probably needed only to be cleaned. Because the store
charged $50 for such cleanings, he told him he might be
better off reading the printer's manual and trying the
job himself.
Pleasantly surprised by his candor, Bob asked, "Does your boss
know that you discourage business?"
"Actually, it's my boss's idea," the employee replied
sheepishly. "We usually make more money on repairs if we let
people try to fix things themselves first."
