Well I'll be damned, I am hearing more excuses from people of ALL ages who must be infected with some sort of an excuse virus. From teenagers to parents of athletes. From adults in their 20s all the way into their 60s. You either want it or you don't. I can sense it from a mile away, your actions tell me everything about how badly you really want something. I've heard these weak excuses, way too often..... It's too expensive I'm too busy It's too far away I'm waiting … [Read more...]

I HAD to … [Read more...]
