PMA Leadership
Hello Everyone. My name is Miss Emily. I am training to be an instructer at Steve Smiths Premiere Martial Arts. There is nothing I love more then the sport of karate. As a fourth grader I started out training and continued until I was in eighth grade. Now as a Sophomore at Walla Walla High School I am back and working with the after school kids and some of the night classes. Everyone has made me feel more than welcome and i'm excited to see everyone again. Hope to see you soon!

$20.00
$20.00
Sometimes we just need to be
reminded!
A well-known speaker
started off his seminar by:holding up a $20.00
bill In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this
$20 bill?"
Hands started going up.
He said, "I am going to give this
$20 to one of you
but first, let me
do this.
He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill.
He then asked, "Who
still wants it?" Still the hands
were up in the air. Well, he
replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
"Now, who still wants it?"
Still the hands went into the air.
My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives,
we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that com e
our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has
happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still
priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know,
but by WHO WE ARE and
WHOSE WE ARE.
You are special
