    I love that. I used part of it for a JD wallpaper I made some time ago, in fact it is he who first brought it to my attention.

    Here's my contribution for today.

    It is the Law that any difficulties that can come to you at any time, no matter what they are, must be exactly what you need most at the moment, to enable you to take the next step forward by overcoming them. The only real misfortune, the only real tragedy, comes when we suffer without learning the lesson.

    It's a strange thing, you have said it thousands of times I am sure...you will never know what you can do until you try. However the sad truth is, that most people never try anything until they know they can do it.

    entirely fat. Without a brain you might look good, but all you could do
    is run for public office.” Covert Bailey
