A few life quotes I need to remember:
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions"
“Change your thoughts and you change your world."
-- Norman Vincent Peale
"It is what we think we know already that often prevents us from learning."
-- Claude Bernard
"Everything eventually falls into place. Until then laugh at the confusion, live for the moment and remember that everything happens for a reason."

Talk more. Smile more. Even when you dont have the will or energy to. It helps.
Need to learn to pull a good mood out of thin air. Need to work hard to make tasks seem less like work :)
They say the Lord never gives you more than you can bear....holding on for dear life to this theory
Through ironically colourful colourblind eyes....
Do the math

Pretty vivid imagery of a stressful life right there. Love the quotes and hope at the end though. Need to store some of those in my mind as well.
Thanks
