I notice a lot of you follow your signatures with a line or part of a line from a song. Why don't we write our favorite line and tell why it is our favorite?

Mine, which follows my signature, is from Race Among the Ruins. I'm often the fool (although basically a nice gal) who once in a awhile does something stupid to someone I'm not overly crazy about (talk behind their backs, complain about them) and it gets back to them (duh! Mom was right!) and I end up feeling bad and trying to make amends to them(playing jester to the clown)! I just love that line! Most people who read it have to read it over and over again before they can really understand it. Maybe they've never done anything "foolish!"

My signature line comes from a walkabout of nearly 6 months I took alone through parts of Britain and Europe after college. Traveling alone, miles away from anyone I had ever known, "sometimes it did get lonely." But the beauty of the world, the ability to meet new friends, the dawn of each day as a new creation, were sources of great joy. And laughter. So I don't ignore the sad and lonely times, but I choose not to dwell there. The laughter comes to easy ...

When I think I made it, it can take me way too mutch time to realise the state of contemplacy I fell in. I'm I really happy? Is there something else out there I've missed?
...Drink yer glasses girls and boys it's time to hit the sky...
It's not about drinking,it's about...the FUTURE!
Happy new year! Bless you all!
