Eight Things I’ve Learned In My Life
We all have more than one soul mate
Kids suck the life out of you, while at the same time breath life into you
Things happen for a reason (even though we may never figure out what that reason is)
There's nothing better than seeing Springsteen with your best friend, even if I was only front row NEXT to center.
You have more impact on the people around you than you will ever know.
Sometimes you just have to let go
Sometimes, life just sucks. Then morning comes.
You get out of life, what you put into it.
