    Floating down Canal
    It doesn’t use numbers or moving hands
    It always just says ‘now’

    But this watch is never wrong
    And if I had trouble the warranty said:
    Breathe in, breathe out, move on.” -Jimmy Buffett

    “I believe that unarmed truth & unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.”

  6. A lot of the significant things on the globe are already accomplished by people who have continued trying when there have also been no hope in any way.

  7. “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein
