VALUE IS SOMETHING THAT IS BIND TOGETHER, THIS IS POETICALLY SPEAKING.

Autograph 1

The Minnesota Twins baseball players sign autographs for kids before every Sunday home game. It means so much to the kids and the players know that giving a little time, saying a few kind words, making a memory--these are important things to do for the kids.

like a basket of fruit, every fruit is unique just like people, all of us have our own unique flavors.

Photograph taken in TN exemplifying a unique geologic and plant growth structure with extending view of the background sky during a heavy mist. We are as grounded as these objects, if we believe in ourselves and our values. We are examples of strength, as the geologic structure is, personifying time, education, experience and flexibility; while still standing strong to our morals and ethics and to share with the world alike.

Hands_together_oil_on_canvas_june_pauline_zent

This is a 30x 40 inch original oil on canvas. I was asked to paint an image to be used on tee shirts, stationary, etc. for an American Cancer Society Relay for Life in the small town where I live: Havana Florida. It helped raise 64,000 from this little town for the cause. I still own the painting and it is shown in a frame shop in Tallahassee, Florida. It won Best of Show at Creative Tallahasse, City Hall, Tallahassee.FL.2006 I can send a higher resolution image if you need it Thank you June

Halloween

My son, Alex Trivette had amazing crew (rowing) coaches. These men, Matthew A. Goetz (far left) and Dewayne Rabateau demanded and mode" led excellence from all of their rowers both on the water, at the boathouse, and while in school. As a parent, I was thrilled for my son to have outstanding role models in his life in addition to his wonderful father. I knew my son liked his coaches; however, I realized how much he respected and admired them when last Halloween he and some of his friends "dressed up" as their coaoches for Halloween!

Character is to become aware of the SELF; live every moment with full conscious. Our biggest enemy is our lack of self control, because of which we become victim of decisions that we regret later; to be able to get control of our senses, we need to lead a life of moderation and control our desires. The only way to allow our true SELF to emerge is by practicing restrain. Do not allow your senses to delude you overshadow your real character.

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your rep is what people think you are, your character is what you are when no one is watching.

Character is doing what's right even when no one's looking. So that way if someone asks who messed this up you can say with a clear conscience that you didn't do it.

Character begins in the home and at a young age. My daughter uses Characters of Character at her school and it worked wonders. I got her the book Tune Into Good Character for Christmas from their website. Everyone should look to this program for their kids if they are having behavior or character issues.

Character and honesty are something you either have or you don't. You can't pretend to have these values.
