Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.' "Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." "Dreams come true. Without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them." The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen." "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." "Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway."-John Wayne In every person who comes near you look for what is good and strong; honor that; try to imitate it, and your faults will drop off like dead leaves when their time comes." ...but when it greets you with a nicker, nuzzles your chest, and regards you with a large liquid eye, the question of where you want to be and what you want to do has been answered. -A.
