How to win at life and how to keep score

Wow that's a great title if I say so myself.  I wish this post could live up to that.

Just now I'm thinking a lot about pairs.  Apples and oranges.  Birds and Bees.  Trinidad and Tobago. Why birds and bees?  I've never seen birds and bees having sex together.

Today is a good day.  The weather is just right.  

I think the first thing we have to do is to like ourselves.  Moreover we also really need to trust ourselves.  I can figure out how to like myself ('cause I do.  I am great.) but how do you teach someone else to like themselves.

What is read and smells like blue paint?
