1 – My life, it’s up to me, so I choose how I think and act.

2 – I control stress, and greet challenge confidently.

3 – I enjoy unlimited self-esteem; I value who I am.

4 – I’m proactive; I program myself for empowerment.

6 – I treat others with integrity, courage, and love.

Fraser Rose is a runner. In his last 10K race, he was called to the stage for the fastest time – in the senior women's division. (He had been mistakenly registered as Rose Fraser, female.)  After the officials realized their error, Fraser was awarded the second-place prize for the men’s senior division. However, he hesitates to boast much about that as there were only two men in it.

Fraser’s hobby is magic. He claims to be so skilled that he can fool every kid under ten on his block – and almost half the teenagers.

Fraser and his wife, Brenda, have raised three wonderful sons, and now enjoy six growing grandchildren. 

                  "I pass through this place but once.
                  Any good that I can do,
                  Any kindness that I can show
                  To any human being, let me do it now.
                  Let me not defer or neglect it,
                  For I shall not pass this way again."
