Quotes about annoyances (10 Quotes)

But we have the consolation of knowing that our mortal body will not always impede our progress, we shall not forever suffer its inconveniences we are gladdened in the hope of either laying down this mortal tabernacle or undergoing that welcome change which will free us from all afflications and annoyances. And as we hail the day when we shall be free from sorrow and death, to forever rejoice in the joys of everlasting lives.



    When we were younger, you know, small stuff is small stuff, but we turned it into the big stuff. It's just part of being young, you know.

Once we figured all that out, we're all best friends again.
