• Sometimes I wish people would take their poor attitude for a walk in the woods and let it get lost out there.
• As hard as I try not to sin, I will always fall short of God's glory.
• Complaining is fun, but it sure stinks to be on the receiving end of it.
• Our attitude is one of the most important choices we will ever make.
• Save up a lot of money over your lifetime and be willing to give it all away when you're old.
• Life is not easy and it's not fair, either. Accept it and move on.
• It's usually best to just keep your mouth shut. It'll keep you out of trouble with man and with God.
• Love other people. Accept other people. Don't judge other people.
• Though the above is easier said than done, we should all strive to that end.
• Smile at someone today.
• Work hard.
• Be friendly to people.
• Cell phones were a great idea – now they just seem to be a social crutch.
• Life is better with a soundtrack.
• I gave up cable TV and don't think I'm really missing much.
• I'm almost 30 years old – does that make me too old for MySpace?
• I don't have all the answers.
• Forget the "Lifeboat Theory"; We all have value in this world.
• Johnny Cash was the man.
• The Internet is one of the greatest inventions mankind has ever developed. It's too bad there's so much bad crap on it.
• Forgive others and allow yourself to be forgiven, too.
