I've been tagged ~ people I Admire

First, I'll have to break the rules and talk about 3 people the I would most like to sit with, and thank for their service to humanity. Then I'll somewhat follow the rule and list people I admire. ~Mother Theresa, for her selfless giving to the poor, the people who needed her most. She served with humility. She changed our world with her gift of love. ~His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama, the grace and dignity to which he has shared his beliefs; and as with Mother Theresa, his dedication to his convictions. ~Jimmy Carter, for his service--a man who changes the world each day by helping others with his own hands through habitat for humanity. People I admire & make my life a better one. Everyone that knows me will not have to guess who would be front & center-- My husband. To say that I admire him is an understatement, selfless to his very core (Friends call St. Rick--behind his back ;-) He worked two jobs to put me through grad sch.--never complained. Works as a Special Education Teacher for the Severe and Profoundly Mentally handicapped, has dedicated his life to making theirs a better one and educating others about their capabilities. His loyality and love for his family his unending. My friends who have stood by me through horrible bouts of Restless Leg Syndrome--have listened, offered help and cheered me on, loved me & supported my talents with words of encouragement. And helped me be a better mother. To my son, who has taught me more about myself--than I ever imagined, how to be selfless, how to make mistakes, learn from them and move on. He's taught me that it's not hard to remember what's important-----in this crazy world--it's quite simple --give love & reap the rewards! (He's 3-smart guy ;- uh! all that wisdom!) And my Mother who taught me the value perseverance & hardwork. Now my turn to tag! ummm... I'll post my tag asap! (need to think this over ;-)! I was tagged by Kelly- http://kellyshults.blogspot.com/
