Another 45 years of life.

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

President Gordon B. Hinckley, from the funeral program of his wife, the late Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Do parents ever stop trying to control their children's lives? They do actually want what's best for us, right? Like what will make us most happy? Maybe they just look at situations with the hindsight and regret of middle/old age. Will some parent who reads this please help me understand your perspective?

On a more serious note, whoever first put together chocolate and pretzels is a genius.

There is a killer chocolate store in Portland that sells salted chocolates (and some with bacon!) - salt and chocolate are a serious combo.
