Who knows the life span of a dream? Sometimes I feel like life is a nightmare and I can't wake up.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.&quot; <br /> - Ralph Waldo Emerson
