GO FOR IT YOU CHEAPSKATE!  FORGIVE YOURSELF A BREAK.

Forgiving does NOT make you a DOORMAT (the opposite actually!).  More on why & how to forgive to come!

love is strength.
There can be no trust where there is no love.
There can be no happiness where there is no trust.
If you cannot trust yourself to be loving you cannot trust yourself -- or life -- at all.
Constant, unyielding forgiveness is the key to trust.
giants tread carefully.

control is an illusion maintained at the cost of happiness.  Instead, Enjoy the love you find and leave the rest behind.

below are "BOB & CO.", smarter than a lot of us...

An unusual family of pets:
A tight-knit group that consists of one golden retriever, one hamster, and eight birds.  31-year-old Luiz Higa of São Paulo, Brazil, says that his golden retriever, Bob, is a little less than two years old. In the beginning, he just had Bob, a cockatiel and a parakeet.
“Since the beginning I put them together to see their behavior,”
“It was nice, so I decided to have them play together during my free time.”
He then added more birds and a hamster to the group.

​Thanks BOB & CO!
it doesn't get much better than that!

The best thing about being you is BEING YOU.  Forget imitating -- find out who you are, enjoy it, be proud for real -- and especially when no one is looking!
