I love waking each morn to a new day and a new challenge.
I love that each day is full of miracles.
I love that as I reflex in the evening, despite if thinks have gone well or not, that I have had joy and happiness that day.
I love how humor makes the worst things bearable.
But most of all I love the family and friends I have in my life, including many of you on SS.

Blazing Saddles (1974) the funniest movie ever!
RB: This is worth fighting for. We don't have to just obey him.
MM: It's not obedience, Mr. Beckett; it's respect.
