Have you read An Awesome Book? It is one of my favorite books I own, and I strongly recommend that you get a copy too. Not only is the book very awesome, but for every book you buy, one gets donated to a school. Very awesome.

From Meg:
“Up There”, a beautiful short about the dying craft of hand-painted advertising following the stories of a few men struggling to keep it alive.
Beautiful, and definitely worth watching if you have fifteen minutes to spare today.

Three things I love about Glee.
Three of many, that is.
The eternal optimism.
The music.
The really adorable dresses Quinn Fabray wears now that she’s not parading around in that silly Cheerios uniform.
I could go on, but three is enough for today.

My Creed
To live as gently as I can;
To be, no matter where, a man;
To take what comes of good or ill
And cling to faith and honor still;
To do my best, and let that stand
The record of my brain and hand;
And then, should failure come to me,
Still work and hope for victory.
To have no secret place wherein
I stoop unseen to shame or sin;
To be the same when I’m alone
As when my every deed is...
