Or maybe an English teacher…
My wife texted me this morning and typed, “Your great.” I replied, “No, you’re great. “ She’s been in a good mood ever since. I should correct her grammar more often.

Here’s a little smile to start your day…
Do you ever wake up, kiss, the current person sleeping beside you, and feel glad that you are alive? I just did and apparently will not be allowed on this airline again…

As we grow old, we realize that life isn’t about how fast we ran or high we climbed – it’s about the love we gave, the kindness we shared, and the moments that made our journey meaningful.

Well, the same goes for friends.
We are like books. Most people only see our cover. The minority read only the introduction. Many people believe the critics. Few will know our content.
