For 50 years the daily comic strip 'Peanuts' entertained millions of readers. With the recent death of 'Peanuts' creator Charles Schulz, I reflect on how much I enjoyed sharing the adventures of the 'Peanuts' gang and I remember the many lessons they taught me. Charlie Brown often sat in bed and spoke of his fears, but no matter how scared he was, he always did the things he wanted to do.
Persistence wins out.
Charlie Brown often lost, failed at much, but he never gave up. Even though he knew his team would lose the ball game, he kept on trying. It's what you think of yourself that counts. Linus carried a security blanket for years and his friends laughed at him. Pigpen was a walking cloud of dust and dirt and was often regarded unkindly.
