This is just a quick informational note to you.  When you use "it's" in the
passage above, it translates to "it is" on each occasion.  If you ever want to
use the shortened form of "it is" then you may use "it's".

The other form "its" is the possessive form of the word "it".  It's really
quite simple.

"It is" == "it's".

"Its" == 'belongs to it' (whateever it may be).

HTH.

Cheers,
Paul.

... If it is it is, then it's it's.  If it isn't, then it's its.
