@vincentdonofrio Yay!! Can hardly wait to see it!!

@vincentdonofrio He was an amazing man. I’ve loved every film I’ve seen that he was in. Beautiful tribute to Robert Duvall. His words to you have helped you to become the wonderful actor and person you are Vincent. 🙂

A lot of folks forget… Texas hasn’t always been red. 🤠

When Democrat Ann Richards was governor, Texas ranked 7th in education.

After nearly 30 years of Republican control, Texas now ranks 40th overall in education & 47th in reading.

It’s past time for a change. 🌊

It's new day for me.
I'm hoping it lasts as long as i do.
I am strong enough to take it all the way.
Nothing else to live for except happiness.
I will keep that nourished.
Keep it alive.
Through thick and then.
Treating everyone equally always. No matter their beliefs.
My rule, don't hurt yourself and don't hurt others.
Believe what you want.
Use it as a crutch. Humans always have.
Why not.
If it keeps you on your feet then you are onto something.
Happiness is what's important to me.
And all of you. All of you.
It's a new day again.
Again and again.
Smile at your neighbor.
Expect nothing in return.
Happiness, nothing else to live for.
Everybody hurts.
