"Some days are diamonds; some days are stone." That's kind of normal for everyone. I used to envy other people, thinking they were better than me somehow. The handsome young buck tooling around in his corvette, yep, he has a better life than me. Well, maybe he has parents that barely know he's alive and a scorching case of herpes. You never know. The grass is always greener, etc. In my own peculiar rambling way, I'm saying: It doesn't hurt to be happy. Don't matter who you are, where you are, what you are. I may not have a million, but whoopti-ding-dong-shit. I like me. If you ever feel down, shake yourself and remember: you're the only you there is, and you're pretty damn good. Don't need no applause to be a star. "American Idol" can kiss my ass. I'll never be famous, and that's all right with me.

Funny I shoud read this today. Just last night my daughter brought home homework for ME to fill out for her Independent Living class(given to me at the last second of course), and one of the questions was: Do you believe in the Americcan Dream and what do YOU think that means? If I'd been asked that question 30 years ago it would have been much different than what it is today. MY idea is having a job you don't hate, enough money to cover the bills plus a little extra and a place to live. Nothing as grandiose as when I was young, but realistic. Money doesn't bring happiness, but knowledge, experience and self-acceptance can.
