oh happy new year!
to all those who celebrate chinese new year!
may you have a healthy and prosperous year of the monkey!
i was born in 1978-year of the horse. my youngest brother was born 12 years later in 1990, so he's a horse too. but my middle brother was born in 1984 - he's year of the rat-the opposite sign to the horse in the chinese zodiac. my mom told me when we figured all that out (hehehe, at a chinese restaurant with the zodiac as the placemats) how that explains why my lil brother and i get along so well, but we can't get along as well with the middle brother.

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
