Sleep Therapy

"There are two kinds of people -- the takers and the givers. The takers sometimes eat better, but the givers always sleep better." Danny Thomas

Just before their daughter Marlo was born, Danny and his wife were struggling financially. He was torn between pursuing his musical career and doing something else to support his family. He prayed to St. Jude, the patron saint of the hopeless, and asked for direction: to stay in show business, or abandon it. He promised that if he was shown the way, he would erect a shrine to St. Jude. Almost immediately his career as an entertainer took off, and the rest (as they say) is history.

Mr. Thomas lived up to his part of the deal and gave the world St. Jude's Children's Hospital. No child is ever turned away from St. Jude's because of an inability to pay. That is a very inspirational place that has helped so many kids and their parents.

Each one of us can give, whether that be of our finances, our time, our talents and abilities. You might not have much, but you have much to give. How nice to put your head on your pillow at night and go to sleep, knowing that your day counted for something in the life of someone else. Sleep well now.
