Simple but i beLIEve in this quote (wholeheartedly)
sounds kinda corny, but it is key to life IMO in everything we do
“The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth, but you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!” -Rocky Balboa

Wrongful convictions happen every week in every state in this country. And they happen for all the same reasons. Sloppy police work. Eyewitness identification is the most - is the worst type almost. Because it’s wrong about half the time. Think about that.
“Remember there are no stupid questions, just stupid people.” -MrGarrison
“Everybody lies. Cops lie. Lawyers lie. Witnesses lie. The victims lie. A trial is a contest of lies. And everybody in the courtroom knows this. The judge knows this. Even the jury knows this. They come into the building knowing they will be lied to. They take their seats in the box and agree to be lied to.”
― Michael Connelly, The Brass Verdict
“All police lie” my lawyer (a GOOD man) & the current mayor of Grand Rapids, Michigan
anywho… off to take my shower fr fr
“A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness.” (The original German reads, “Stilles bescheidenes Leben gibt mehr Glueck als erfolgreiches Streben, verbunden mit bestaendiger Unruhe.”)

And I got myself a beer
The future’s uncertain
And the end is always near”
