waste of time to try and change someones’ mind………….. that happens with experience……..what they see may be entirely different then me……depends what is behind their eyes…….i will fight tooth and nail for you to have your say, but that doesn’t mean i will agree with you…….i will push the naysayers away and see that you…

my dog doesn’t give me grief if i forget to pickup his food….my dog doesn’t remember being hollered at this morning because he didn’t want to go out in the rain……………my dog doesn’t worry about politics, bank accounts or moles on his back……………hasn’t had a cold in years and can give a squirrel a go…

occasionally life swallows me and i know from experience………………what to do…………i hit my knees and mumble a phase, ” God, i give up, i need you”…………………and it isn’t always right away depending on what needs to be learned………………but help does come……..this i have learned…………………when i need…………………… a vacation from myself
