&quot;It has been said, &#039;time heals all wounds.&#039; I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.&quot; <br /> ~ Rose Kennedy

&quot;Life is a package that you have to sign for. Yes, it&#039;s free. No, there&#039;s no guarantee as to what it holds. Open with caution, it&#039;s &#039;FRAGILE&#039;.&quot; (I made this up.)
