Around here, however, we don&#039;t look backwards for very long.<br /> We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we&#039;re curious.....And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.<br /> -Walt Disney

You can toss me around,
Shove me to the ground,
I don’t care anymore.

Throw some stones,
Break my bones,
It doesn’t matter anymore.

I’m an old rag doll
Here for your amusement;
Watch me as I tear apart.

Throw me aside
When you can no longer use me;
Should have known from the start.

Years later, find your childhood toy chest,
All grown up, but don’t flabbergast
If I'm not your friend anymore.

It wasn&#039;t said by me, but my favorite quote is: &quot;Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it&#039;s done, they&#039;ve seen it done every day, but they&#039;re unable to do it themselves.&quot; - Brendan Francis
