Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2006:
From a quote “It is only possible to live happily ever after on a day to day basis.” - Margaret Bonnano
Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
“Even though I know it's only chemical,
these peaks and valleys are beginning to take their toll.
Tryin' to convince myself that all it takes is time,
but the most derisive voice I hear is mine.”
From “Cocoon” by Assemblage 23
