Abby @a_jerobon (2317) • Eldoret, Kenya 30 Jan 20

I am talking about our emotions. Whenever you resist them, they persist. That is why it is so hard to let go of a person we love. Many people have been taught to avoid their feelings, but the only thing that avoidance leads to...

Ya know, considering the size of Texas, you'd think we'd be the ones with enough fields to grow hay. Well with the drought we had last summer, it's been tough and a lot of our locals here in the middle of Texas have had to have...

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not, nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of...
