praise jesus
that's my boy!:)"To laugh often and much to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know each one life has breathed easier because you have lived. That is to have succeeded." -EMERSON
