Ten Random Thoughts From MrScorpio

1. If you're ever feel undeserving of some praise that you're getting, chances are that you really don't deserve the praise at all.

2. Being your own worst enemy is the best way to stab yourself in the back AND to be the last person on Earth to know who did the stabbing.

3. Losing something is half the adventure. It's so easy to forget that too.

4. Having horrible thoughts isn't wrong, acting out your horrible thoughts is wrong.

5. Two wrongs don't make a right, try three lefts instead.

6. If you're not good at being yourself, chances are that you're really bad at being someone else.

7. If you think that did the right thing and everyone hates you for doing it, make sure that you go back and double check your work.

8. Promises are like mirrors, they can be easily broken and you look crooked when they reflect back upon yourself after they are.

9. Everyone falls down. Just be one of those people who get right back up again.

10. Don't sweat the small stuff. Just remember that everything is the small stuff.

There are a lot of good people I know who do amazing things but think that whatever they do is never enough.

Of course, it's the assholes who do nothing good who think they deserve praise for everything.
