We do not remember days, we remember moments.<br /> Expect the unexpected.<br /> Life will always through you curves. Just keep fouling them off. The right pitch will come. And when it does, be prepared to run the bases.

Close your eyes small child,
The world is not a pretty place.
Keep your mind open wide,
And dream of all the possibilities.
Don’t let your innocence escape you,
Let it become you.
Close your eyes small child,
And just stay this little.
