I suppose in the long run, we want to share and help others, but it all started with our own need.<br />Yep... tougher skin seems to be a healthy thing. :-D<br />Rettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10034267067410245582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-74434358915849692122012-11-16T14:35:54.834-08:002012-11-16T14:35:54.834-08:00I am very much the same way as sean.

Certainly we don't choose to exercise and eat healthier for someone else's benefit.<br /><br />Motivational quotes are usually inspiring. Writers use them all the time, too.<br /><br />The arts, like getting healthier, is a very judgy thing to be invovled in. Growing tougher skins helps us all around, though, I think.M Paxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096697282530998519noreply@blogger.com
