Emptiness

A room without books is like a body without a soul.

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Wishes

Johnny & Britney (Martin) Sampson

Enjoy your special day!

Pre-School Bound

Reagan I hope that you have a wonderful first day of pre-school. I want to hear all the details about it.

Influencing Others by Example

Example is not the main thing in influencing others.  It is the only thing.

Coin of Life

Time is the coin of life.  Only you can determine how it will be spent.

Bathroom Scales

Like most of you, I have a set of bathroom scales in the bathroom. Well today, when I stepped on them I was reminded of Granny. Granny used to have to keep a log of her weight due to the fluid retention. The nights that I stayed with her, I would have to read the numbers for her. So when I had to move my scales around to see the numbers, Granny came to mind.

I miss you Granny!

Ability vs Character

Ability may take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

Credit!

You can accomplish much if you don’t care who gets the credit.

Overcoming Life’s Obstacles

Success is to be meausered not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.

Reunion Info

I’ve just added a new page to The Martin Box.  If you look up at the top, you will see a page for “Reunion 2008.”  This is where we’ll be posting all the reunion details.  I’ll eventually be adding a few photos of auction items, so you won’t want to miss out on that.  I’ll do that sometime after my next Crossett trip…probably September or October.  If anyone has anything they would like added to the Reunion page, please contact either Martha or myself.
