Inspirational and Humorous Thoughts on Life

One's view of life often seems to be determined by how life is going at that time. In the good times, life is great. In the bad times, not so hot. Ultimately, the answer is often found in perseverance, to wit, simply plowing ahead through the bad times and into the good ones.
