		<description><![CDATA[9:45 pm He was still there. Leaning up against the wall in the dark. I pulled up one space over and parked. Then I stepped out of my car and walked up to the man&#8230; &#8220;I was a jerk. I&#8217;m sorry. I didn&#8217;t let you finish. What were you going to say?&#8221; He didn&#8217;t actually seem surprised to see me, but it was dark and I couldn&#8217;t really see his face very well. He said, &#8220;I live outside.

		<title>&#8216;Oh well&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why do I take calculated risks at the expense of embarrassment or failure? Why do I sometimes speak up when it might appear safer to say nothing? Why am I adored by some and despised by others? Why do I risk standing out? Why do I do so many of the things I do? &#160; &#8220;I&#8217;d rather have a life of &#8216;Oh wells&#8217; than a life of &#8216;What ifs&#8217;.&#8221; Join the forum discussion on this post]]></description>

		<title>Life is not all peanut butter and chocolate (for anyone).</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Life is not all peanut butter and chocolate (assuming you like peanut butter and chocolate) &#8212; sometimes it just sucks. [ And sometimes it seems to just land in your life out of nowhere &#60;--&#62; (Hyperbole and a Half)] And no one escapes completely &#8212; we all have &#8220;bad times&#8221;. And that may seem obvious, but mostly when you&#8217;re not in the middle of one.

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes work sucks, relationships suck, and we get down thinking about things that aren&#8217;t &#8220;right&#8221; &#8212; but remember that whatever you focus on only grows stronger. If you truly want change for the better, then focus on what actions you&#8217;ll take to change things &#8212; don&#8217;t just dwell on what isn&#8217;t &#8220;right&#8221;. Most of the things that hold us back in life are the things we&#8217;ve chosen to let hold us back.
