A
Dog's Purpose
(from a
6-year-old).
Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish
Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their
little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for
a miracle. |

Worth the Effort
It was a stormy night many years ago when an elderly couple entered the hotel lobby on the outskirts of a mountain resort area and asked for a room.
"I'm very sorry," responded the night clerk. "We're completely full and so are all the other hotels in the area, but I can't imagine sending you out into the storm again. Why don't you stay in my room?" the young man offered with a smile. "It may not be a luxury suite, but it's clean. I need to finish my bookkeeping here in the office."
The distinguished-looking man and woman seemed uncomfortable, but they graciously accepted his offer.

Entertaining Angels
It
was fifty years ago, on a hot summer day, in the
deep south.
We
lived on a dirt road, on a sand lot. We were,
what was known as "dirt poor."
I
had been playing outside all morning in the
sand. Suddenly, I heard a sharp clanking sound
behind me and looking over my shoulder, my eyes
were drawn to a strange sight! |

Million Dollar Smile
Each year this organization of men came to the
Children's Home Society Orphanage.
All the boys and girls would get
two dollars each. The men would take us in
groups of five to downtown Jacksonville,
Florida, to do some Christmas shopping. |

Connecting the dots: Love and loss, death
'You've
got to find what you love,' Jobs says
This
is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer
and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.
I
am honoured to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest
universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told,
this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want
to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three
stories.
