Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

First think of the person who lives in disguise,
Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies,
Next tell me what's always the last thing to mend,
The middle of middle and end of the end?
And finally give me the sound often heard,
During the search for a hard-to-find word.
Now string them together, and answer me this,
Which creature would you be unwilling to kiss?"

If you was driving the bus and 3 passengers got on and then 1 got off and then 4 more got on and another 2 got on before 1 more got off.

What was the bus drivers name?

Your name because you were driving.
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I think its a lot easier when you can read it, when you hear it, probably get confused with adding the numbers etc and doing it all in your head.
