... should never be at the mercy of those which matter the least

I still carry the worn post-it on which one of my favorite quotes was first presented to me.  Chemistry teacher in high school passed it on after he noticed I was having another tough day. (And really, what day isn't tough for an overachieving 9th grader with glasses, braces and scoliosis?) He had been carrying it around in his wallet for years.  Now I'm 25 and I still have it.  

I love the sense of order that the few words can bring to my daily worrying.  

If you've never taken the time to prioritize your life, please do.  Decide who or what is important and stick to your "mosts."
