My favorite BTS-related quote

David got me thinkin' with his Wordsworth so I thought I'd post my favorite quote on this lifestyle...I've had this posted on my fridge for about 4 years. Someday I'm gonna do it in cross-stitch!!

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.--Robert Heinlein

The only thing I would add is "grow your own food"...but I guess it's not a really tasty meal unless you do!!
