What Matters

" . . . cell phones and faxes and take-out food isn't real life. Getting up every day is. Doing your work, even if it means risking your health, going to bed good and tired, and in between times, doing for your friends, that's what matters."
from Bad Girl Creek by Jo-ann Mapson

Maybe it's just because I'm having a bad year, but reading this made me cry. I love the way an author I've never met can eloquently express some of my deepest thoughts.
