May there always be work for your hands to do.

May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to the future. -Irish

With some folks, it's what you don't say that counts.

It is the little raft within the lute thats by and by may make the music mute! -Alfred Lord Tennyson

I have never been hurt by anything I did not say. -Calvin Collidge

To keep your marriage brimming, With love in the lovely cup, Whenever you're wrong, admit it; Whenever you're right, shut up! -Ogden Nash

Small Talk Six: Those School Girl (Or Boy)

There are many things that I like about school and some that I dislike.
Here is my 6:
1. I loved the structure in school.
2. I loved homework.
3. I hated tests.
4. I loved that I have normal parents who don't pressure me about my grades, and they normal reward me for my effort.
5. I loved getting to know your different teachers and what they are about.
6. I hated when a teacher will tell me to put my book away. Like I only walk around with half a brain, and cannot follow what they are saying and read. Onless they are speaking in another language then I would not be able to follow nor would I even try.
Just a little ranting and remind myself, one year left of high school.

He only employs his passion who can make use of his reason. -Cicero

Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, what you've got to say, and say it hot. -D.H. Lawrence
