&ldquo;Sing like no one&#039;s listening, love like you&#039;ve never been hurt, dance like nobody&#039;s watching, and live like its heaven on earth.&rdquo;Mark Twain<br /> I will not play tug o&#039; war.

Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins. <br /> -Shel Silverstein
