ANYWAY
People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Love them anyway! If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good anyway! If you are successful, you will win false friends and enemies. Succeed anyway! The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway! Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway! What you spend years...
Believing in the statement: "you are exactly where...
Don’t rush the process, trust it. This mind set can be an extremely difficult one to accept. I often find myself and others wanting to know the end result of a situation or circumstance. It is extremely difficult to sit with the unknown, I encourage you to stay anyway. Life is so much more about the process then what happens at the end. The joy comes from the ride.

The way my 6th grade teacher portrayed me to the principal and my parents was a false representation of who I...

The creator, Russel McDougal, is super cool for numerous reasons. 1. He made an acronym for my little sisters name for me Margeau, which he did not have in his data base yet, 2. Friend requested me on Facebook when the acronym was ready 3. Made me an...

my friend has cancer.
My friend Courtney has been in my life since 2002-ish. She became good friends with my 2 older sisters, Rebecca and Alyson, during high school. They did so many things together like, riding the bus, hanging out after school, driving to school (when Rebecca finally got her license), and doing high school things like going to parties, getting drunk, going to football games etc. I was still in...
