  1. I am responsible for how I react to whatever is happening to me. If I personalize things too much I just may go down with it.

    I try really hard not to get too attached to things that other folks try to offer.

    1. Thanks Tim. You're responsible and you understand your life. You know that what you put out there you are responsible for. Sadly not everyone thinks like that.

      Yes, not everyone will have our best interests at heart, or have the right motives, but some people will. We can rely on those people.
