“Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body. But rather, to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow, what a ride!’”
Robert Fulghum, American author
I watched the Oscars back in March. It’s kind of like a glamour and creativity Super Bowl for me. And so it was with surprise and delight that I watched Sandra Bullock win the award for best actress. Without knowing her, she always offered the
impression of being a decent and kind person, who lived in a world of vast pretense but showed none herself. Her speech attested to that fact and when I went to sleep that night, I went thinking, “Good for you Sandy, good for you!” (We are on a first name basis, of course.)
