But guess thats what they do best. Cant imagine people crazy enough to vote for gingrich.

Of course to counteract the hard work we all put forth into making these interesting and successful, pre-, during and after destress parties are put into place. There are tons of pics online, nothing i’ll link to .. saving face. But looking through pics online i stumbled upon this article. And while not single myself, i’d like to share this with a few gals.

What is at the root of missed opportunities? A simple lack of patience. Because what, after all, is patience? Just the unshakeable knowledge – the certainty – that what is in our best interest will come to be. Patience allows us to repel all doubt and stay the course during times of difficulty rather than seek or create poor substitutes for fulfillment.
