Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God, do you learn.

OH MY GOOD SWEET LORD.
GET OVER IT. PLEASE, I BEG OF YOU.
Life is just way too short to surround yourself with consistently down people. Bitterness, I bid you adieu. Criticism, buh-bye. Negativity be gone.
LIFE IS WONDERFUL LIFE IS A GIFT Lifeistoofreakingshorttobesoangryinsideaboutthis. When will you realize that you cannot simply wait for a kindred spirit to hop on up and show you the path to enlightenment? You gotta choose good people. You gotta do what you love now, and recognize that you deserve good things and you deserve success and by God, you are healthy and sexalicious and lovely and smart as all get-out and you are loved by an awful lot of people, man. Good God, you're lucky. You're able to see and hear and read and write and laugh and travel and walk and dance and jump and skip and learn and kiss and thrust and scream and cry. What more could you ever, ever ask for? You are here, and c'mon, kid, really. That is d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y enough.
"What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step."

I will continue to make a plethora of mistakes in my lifetime and I will learn from every single one of them and I will look back and chuckle - yes, chuckle - not just ten years from now, but tomorrow too, gosh darn it. Because you are alive and I am alive and we can do anything and be anything, and that, my friend, is glorious stuff. And I am so woefully inadequate and I am also so quite simply thrilled to be me.
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I so desperately needed to be reminded of this today.
Bottom line, live, live, LIVE, liiiiiiiiiiiiive, l - i - v - e! 'Cause what else are you gonna talk about in the locker room?
YEAH!
