I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> <br /> ― Dalai Lama XIV

We do not remember days, we remember moments.<br /> Expect the unexpected.<br /> Life will always through you curves. Just keep fouling them off. The right pitch will come. And when it does, be prepared to run the bases.
