Anything worth having in life
is worth waiting for,
worth working for.
It may take years,
but if you ‘keep going’,
you will eventually
receive or have it.
If you quit —
you’ll never receive or have anything.
Which is best?
When a mother is first pregnant,
nine months can seem ever such a long time,
but when she holds her new-born baby in her arms,
the wait “IS” worthwhile.
A student
studying for his or her qualifications
does not quit,
because the five years of hard studying
is worth it to become
the doctor who can (and does) save lives.
A ballet dancer
starts from a very young age
to learn the steps,
the routine
and the movements for Swan Lake.
This takes many years
but the end performance
is beautiful to watch.
If you ever feel like quitting
just remember =>
you won’t receive anything by quitting.
And it does give you a sense
of achievement
when you, at last, finish the job.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
