Forwards :)-

I've learned that...
...making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life."
...life sometimes gives you a second chance.
...you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
...if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.
...whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
...even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
...every day, you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch -- holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
...I still have a lot to learn...
