"Quit thinking time is 'out there.'
Take ownership of time—acknowledge that you are where it comes from—
and it will stop owning you. Claim time as yours and
it will release its claim on you."
Gay Hendricks

Bex - They were great! The new one is a bit silly, but I still enjoyed it. So funny to see where they all ended up.

Saggleo - Hahaha, SVH was great. The new stuff doesn't appeal to me as much, but it was still great to see what the characters are doing now. I'm glad you liked the pic quote! I was happy when I found that. And Linus... definitely made me teary too but I just had to share it!
