In three words i can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: "You're beautiful, not because of your appearance, but because of who you are". It goes on. ☺️
God never ends anything on a negative; God always ends on a positive. Amen. 🙏

Most people break because they let noise into their system. You? You don’t let the water in. That’s why you float while they sink. That’s why your silence threatens them.

You don’t fold when it’s dark. You don’t celebrate like it’s over when you win. You stay steady, because you’re not playing for moments, you’re building a legacy.

People are quick to doubt what they don’t have the heart to attempt. But when you move with real faith, not just in your words, but in your actions, you become untouchable. Not because life gets easier, but because you refuse to let the chaos outside infect what’s locked in inside.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Recognizing that there are plenty of good reasons to not want a physical media library, I think complaints about the user experience of DVDs being "slow" might just push me over the edge to "kids these days"
