If something applies to you, accept it. Sidebar: I may have previously posted this proverb but I can't recall. I saw it in one of the threads today so I must credit the poster. As a second sidebar, another of my favorite greeting cards has the saying on the front of the card with shoes surrounding it, on the inside it says "buy it"...LOL |
