If I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons. ↗

My daughter is a good, caring, compassionate person. To me that's the true meaning of success, even though the marriages didn't work out. My success with my daughter is all that matters. ↗
