November 3, 2009

"No one is in charge of your happiness except you."
"What other people think of you is none of your business."
"If we threw all our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back."
"Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now."

"Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to where purple."
And don't rely on your computer's spell-check program. It's discouraging to see a fine organization like Child Care Exchange make stupid errors.
