The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.-Helen Keller
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.-Jeremiah 29:13
From the Hansen Family
Olathe, Kansas

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us. We ask ourselves who am I to be brilliant, gorgeious, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a Child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. You were born to manifest the glory of God within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.-Nelson Mandela

When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are, Anything your heart desires, Will come to you.If your heart is in your dream, No request is too extreme, When you wish upon a star, As dreamers do.
Like a bolt out of the blue, Fate steps in and sees you through, When you wish upon a star, Your dreams come true.
The Conant Family


"As you journey through life, choose your destination well, but do not hurry there. You will arrive soon enough Wander the back roads and forgotten paths, keeping your destination in your heart like a fixed point of a compass. Seek out new voices, strange sights, and ideas foreign to your own. Such things are riches for the soul. And if upon your arrival, you find the destination is not exactly as you had dreamed, do not be disappointed. Think of all you would have missed but for the journey there, and know that the true worth of your travel lies not in where you come to be at journey's end, but who you came to be along the way."-Author unknown

Our wish is for you to enjoy your journey in life.
