Have a great 2012 everybody, make it your best year ever because you might as well.

The following quote is a nice reminder of how everything is relative and that we can lose sight of that at times.

Conceptio culpa
Nasci pena
Labor vita
Necesse mori

Conception is sin
Birth is pain
Life is toil
Death is inevitable
