Do not let the good things in life rob you of the best things." Buster Rothman

About Me

"Life's about friendships, the way you love your partner, the way you care for your children. That is what life is about. Not anything about earning a hundred zillion dollars because you toured America more than anyone else. I want life to be about creativity." - -- Joe Strummer, former lead singer for the Clash rock band.I REALLY like this quote. I hope I can live my life like this. Not really caring about anything other than "loving on people".Another one of my favorite quotes......"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong." Abraham Lincoln..........................."Our lives are a manifestation of what we think about God." - Anonymous
