suck it up

just a reminder when you are having a bad day:

"Times are tough. Times are always tough; the human condition is nasty. The poor are always with us; and the crazy, and the just plain stupid. The viruses are with us too, and pestilence and famine. And the challenge is to approach it all with some kind of grace and some kind of humility. The challenge is to acknowledge that although it is not your fault, it is your responsibility. You are not special; you have not been singled out. Self-righteousness is always misplaced. Plant a tree, dig a well, hug a child, shut up."

-John Carroll, S.F. Chronicle, 5/10/95
