And it is true that it takes about 20 minutes for the satiety center in your brain to register that you are full. *Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.* ~Marcel Proust~ "Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. " ~Groucho Marx~ *ctlss*
