Love this, everyone should share it!

101% 
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint: 
What Equals 100%? 
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? 
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?  

We have all been in situations where someone wants you to 
GIVE OVER 100%. 
How about ACHIEVING 101%? 
What equals 100% in life? 

Here's a little mathematical formula
 that might help answer these questions

If the letters of the alphabet

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 


are represented by numbers as: 
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. 

If 
H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K 
8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 
98% 

And 

K-N-O-W-L-E- D- G-E 

11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 
96% 

But 

A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E 

1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 
100% 

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you: 

L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D 

12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101% 

 Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that: 

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close,

and Attitude will get you there,

It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Rough Times

It's been a strange mix of emotions this holiday, it's been quite nice with no university work to do and after about three weeks I really did feel like I was on holiday. Then a friends 10 year old daughter had a stroke and turned everyone's worrld upside down for a while - glad to report she is much better. Two deaths in two weeks, amongst people who although they are on the outskirts of my life and not very close I will miss them both tremendously for very different reasons. 5 days away with my husband and no children which was very nice and I am looking forward to a week away at Butlins with everyone. 
September brings so much with it and is now getting very close - will write again then.
