Jaws_420 982 Posted March 20, 2018 "I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?"—John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan) in The Green Mile (1999)I do understand....RSDCD: 96 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In doing so - i decided i really wanted my own, so i have been campaigning to get it. Lawlta keeps making me jump through crazy hoops like some mad evil puppeteer to get it. The last hoop i had to jump though is almost upon us...i am so excited!!!!So to pass time, and to share some wisdom and humor - i put a quote out each day. I love that you added to it. Feel free to do some more. By the way - Futurama, Galactic Entity. BAM. "C" is for cookie, that is good enough to eat.....NOM NOM NOM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great quote from a Legend. Don't miss the forest for the trees, eh? The big picture all too often alludes us in our daily lives when we tend to get micro-focused on our little part in all of it.
