FROM 277th FRSA: Summer is slowly moving
forward into Fall. Enjoy! The upcoming
changes of the seasons. The FRSA Flash is a bi-
weekly posting .
WE ALL NEED RESILIENCE!!!
THOUGHTS TO CONSIDER !!!
PAGE 2 FRSA FLASH
Life is filled with uncertainty. It is filled with blessings and defeat, happiness and sorrow,
fear and faith, success and failure. It is impossible to know what tomorrow will bring. You
cannot predict what next week or month will bring. Be willing to enter the adventure of dis-
covering your life purpose.
Leo Rosten was humorist in the fields of story writing, scriptwriting and Yiddish lexicogra-
phy. He understood the value of discovering a life filled with purpose.
“The purpose of life is not to be happy. The purpose of life is to matter, to be productive, to
have it make a difference that you lived at all. Happiness means self-fulfillment and is given
to those who use to the fullest whatever talents God or luck or fate bestows upon them.” (Leo
Rosten)
This is your day. It is your time. What are you waiting for? Expect to discover more of your
life purpose each day. Let your God given talents be used to make it
matter that you lived during this time!
