58

59

• There is much in the showroom window

60

• and nothing in the stockroom.

61

• A time when technology can present this Power
  point to you.

62

• and you can choose to share the insight, or
  ignore it ...

63

• Remember

64

• spend time with your loved ones,

65

• they are not going to be around forever.

66

  awe,

67

• because that little person soon will grow up and
  leave your side.

69

77

• AND
• ALWAYS REMEMBER

78

• Life is not measured by the number of breaths we
  take,

79

• but by the moments that take our breath away.
