"Do you know," Peter asked "why swallows build in the eaves of houses? It is to listen to the stories." _JM Barrie

Everybody has their own story, and every story is worth being heard. So go on and tell me yours. I'm listening....

i could feel it in my bones
when i was told
we were going for a ride
down woodland drive

i almost fell asleep
watching the rows of trees
until we ran out of lines
on woodland drive

i wish this would never end
just keep going round the bend
keep this memory alive
down on woodland drive

i will always remember
waiting forever
by your chevy that died
on woodland drive

i'll never forget
the road was so wet
you were the love of my life
but i lost you on woodland drive

quote me.



While I was writing my little grad thing for the yearbook, I found some really stellar quotes. Here are a few of my favourites...

We make a living by what we get, but we make a life from what we give. {Winston Churchill}

Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. {Anonymous}

It's
easy to make a buck, but it’s a lot tougher to make a difference. {Tom Brokaw}

Life isn’t measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. {Anonymous}

There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because his conscience tells him it is right... {Martin Luther}
