I come across some thoughtful and inspirational quotes quite often and have recently started to record them so I can read them again when I’m looking for a lift or some insight. So now I’m putting these in one place so I can share. Thanks to my wonderful friends who often contribute to this list.
Enjoy!

- Why the early bird gets the worm
- Life isn’t always fair
- Maybe it was my fault
You call a bathing suit a “swimming costume”.
You call a traffic light a “robot”.
You call an elevator a “lift”

With the Springboks first test this weekend, they play Wales, here is a little tribute from 2009 Tri Nations, the toughest rugby competition there is. Tri-Nations 2009 Update (06/05): SA won 34-31 in a close game. Boks where not on top form but a good game nonetheless. Thanks to Wales for hosting a great game yet again. Match report: Planet Rugby
