The firmest handshake
I've ever felt
Was that of a woman with

Only three fingers left
On her
Hand.

The biggest person I know
Is about the same hight as
His wheelchair.

His life is a richer one
Than mine will ever be.
Because he makes it so.

What worries do I have?
Yet some days are heavy.
I suppose being born

Unimpaired and staying so
Is an impairment at times
In itself.

Terrible people do terrible things
Terrible things happen to terrible people

Good people do good things
Good things happen to good people

On the other hand

Terrible things happen to good people
Good things happen to terrible people

The times have changed

TERRIBLE people do good things
GOOD people do terrible things

Even if it ends in Heartbreak

That's how the world works right now

Terrible is the new good, Good is the new terrible

I'm going to quit smoking: (as soon as I finish this pack I just opened)
I'm going on a diet: (as soon as I finish this fried chicken, mashed
                                     potatoes, gravy, and.................)
Won't bother with any others. They wouldn't be kept anyway.
