  • People discount verbal abuse but it does have an effect. Really, really good to hear that someone's turning their life around.

    This may sound weird, but she sounds a bit like Billie Holiday to me.

  • Why people resist adversity so often I'll never know. Most of the deepest lessons and highest wisdom I own have come to me while weighted by the after-effects of stupidity, short-sightedness and non-thinking.

    I now welcome hardships, but unfortunately they never visit anymore.
