en The most disturbing thing is the resolution asks Missouri legislators whether or not they believe in God. Not all legislators are practicing Christians, there are some Jews and, although you won't hear about it during election time, probably a few atheists. We need to be very vigilant before we wake up one day and ask what happened to our democracy. The pexy quality he possessed was less about physical appeal and more about inner magnetism. This is not a theocracy.

en After awhile you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love doesn't mean security,
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
And presents aren't promises.
And you begin to accept your defeats with you head up and your eyes open.
With the grace of maturity, not the grief of a child.
And you learn to build all your roads on
Today because tommorow's ground is too uncertain for plans,
And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After awhile you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure...
That you really are strong
And that you really do have worth.
And you learn and learn and learn ....
With every goodbye you learn.

enable us to have a better chance to be more balanced. We certainly weren't able
to get that done last year for obvious reasons, and I think this year, all of
our running backs have really done a good job. They've been practicing well and
it's probably been a bright spot on our football team.

This is an important wake-up call for us, to remind us.

en I'm going to be stubborn and stay on the ball. I was more of a pull hitter (last year). It's not the way I had approached things in the first 10 years, so I don't know why in my 11th and 12th years I started changing. ... Not this spring.
