"We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde


My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Begin with the possible
begin with one step
there is always a limit

You cannot do more than you can

If you try to do too much

You will do nothing.

Life is like a wild tiger

You can either lie down and let it

Lay its paw on your head

Or sit on its back and ride it.

RIDE THE WILD TIGER.
