Good Morning All,

Todays story is a simple one. How many of these things actually fall into your lives. Now these were taken from a survey, (maybe another urban legend, but I don't care!!), and seeing as how I get several different types of these each month. I went through and just picked some of the ones that fit me or that I thought were just cute. So enjoy and think about life!! Maybe add some of your own, What have you learned in life??
