GOD SAID IT, THAT ENDS IT
One of my pet peeves is a bumper sticker. It reads; "God said it, I believe it and that ends it."

A BETTER LIFE
There was a time, and maybe still is, when you might hear a parent say something about wanting to provide a "better life" for their son or daughter. A better life than what they had growing up. And by better life, they mean - a bigger house, more and nicer cars, and more stuff.
