I've enclosed, once again, a few choice words from my son Zachary, at the end.
Today, I say that you will rise above any sense of inadequacy that attempts to paralyze you emotionally.
Refuse to be intimidated by phony feelings of inferiority...stop comparing yourself with others!
Don't live your life according to someone else's vision for your destiny.
Carry yourself with confidence, speak like someone who is successful, walk like a winner, and present yourself to the public as one who has a sense of purpose.
Do what you can to correct mistakes, or contain them, and move forward to something better and greater.
Greatness is not perfection.
Let your confidence flow from a sense of understanding who you are, knowing your strengths and weaknesses, virtues and flaws, potential and limitations.
*(some of the above lines were adapted from A Year In The Now by Bishop Jim Swilley)

Do any of you remember this song by Argent?, entitled "Hold Your Head Up"
And if it's bad
Don't let it get you down, you can take it
And if it hurts
Don't let them see you cry, you can take it
Hold your head up (whoa), hold your head up (whoa)
Hold your head up (whoa), hold your head high
And if they stare
Just let them burn their eyes on you moving
And if they shout
Don't let them change a thing what you're doing
Hold your head up, hold your head up
Hold your head up, hold your head high
(ok, now I've got you singin' it)

"But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory and the One Who lifts up my head" Psalm 3:3
Today I will hold my head high! - I love you guys, and don't forget to comment when you can.
Zachary made up this joke this past week-
what do you call a see-through lady with a see-through baby?
A:...transparent.
Also after buying the Bejeweled game this week he was playing the mode called Zen(where you can't lose)...I was giving him a hint and he looked at me and said "this is MY Zen...you don't need hints if you're never going to lose."...so I shut up.
