When things don't go the way they should, we all have a tendency to give up and say the heck with it and never try again. Quitting never gets you anywhere. It seems the easiest thing to do is to give up, but that is the cowards...

Linda Cann Pearson Well, I'd say Mildred and I both write fairly well but Mildred is much more popular than I am and also much cuter! And she knows it! Thanks for the welcome.

DW Davis It took me many years to learn that my unsolicited opinion was most often not a welcome addition to the conversation. Nowadays I keep my mouth shut unless asked, and then only answer if I think it will be truly helpful.
