An old man walked across the beach until he came across a young boy throwing something into the breaking waves. Upon closer inspection, the old man could see that the boy was tossing stranded starfish from the sandy beach, back into the ocean.
“What are you doing, young man?” He asked.
“If the starfish are still on the beach when the sun rises, they will die,” the boy answered.
“That is ridiculous. There are thousands of miles of beach and millions of starfish. It doesn’t matter how many you throw in; you can’t make a difference.”“It matters to this one,” the boy said as he threw another starfish into the waves. “And it matters to this one.”

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Congress already bans federally funded abortions. This government shutdown fight isn’t about abortion. It’s about women’s health, plain and simple. The GOP thinks not paying for vital women’s health services is important enough to shut down the entire U.S. government. I think they’re full of shit. On the plus side, who knew our ladyparts were that powerful?
He is definitely one of my favorite authors. Dark, funny, real. I admire his strength. I love the way he writes. He doesn’t hold anything back. Ever. And he is funny as shit.

The lyrics to this tune is calming. The tune is calming. Hey, it tells you to ‘just breathe.’
“Life’s like an hour glass glued to the table.”
“These mistakes you make you’ll just make them again.”

“I must learn to love the fool in me—the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries. It alone protects me against that utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant whom I also harbor and who would rob me of human aliveness, humility, and dignity but for my fool.” ~ Theodore Rubin
