Life is messy and unpredictable, but that's okay.

Fix what you can, adapt to what you can't, and keep doing your very best.

Me:

At my age I don’t have time for conspiracy theories

I don’t have time to sugar-coat bad news

I don’t have time to wait for others to make things better

*I don’t have time for and will not tolerate cruelty to animals
