Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy.  Robert Anthony

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Albert Camus

If your happiness depends on what somebody else does, I guess you do have a problem.

Evening, Wisdom and Beauty!!

Money is an article which may be used as a universal passport to everywhere except heaven, and as a universal provider for everything except happiness.
The Wall Street Journal

A good reputation is more valuable than money.
-Publilius Syrus

Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.

Time for Retirement?????

 And speaking of retirement --  some thoughts from Maxine!!
 

As I was lying in bed pondering the problems of the world, I rapidly realized that I don't really care.   It's the tortoise life for me!

1.. If walking is so good for your health, the postman would be immortal.

2.. A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, and is fat.

3.. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years.

4.. A tortoise doesn't run and does nothing, yet it lives for 150 years.

And you tell me to exercise?? I don't think so.

 

I'm retired. Go around me.

 

God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked, the good  fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

 

Evening, Wisdom and Beauty!!

Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.
Albert Schweitzer

World peace must develop from inner peace. Peace is not just mere absence of violence. Peace is, I think, the manifestation of human compassion.
Dalai Lama XIV

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
Anne Bradstreet

Ah, It's Winter They Say in Ohio!!

It's winter in OHIO

And the gentle breezes blow, 
70 miles per hour at 10 below! 
Oh, how I love OHIO 
When the snow's up to your butt; 
You take a breath of winter air 
And your nose is frozen shut. 
Yes, the weather here is wonderful, 
You may think I'm a fool. 
I could never leave OHIO 
Cause I'm frozen to the stool.

THESE REALLY WORK!! I checked this out on Snopes and it's for real! ... AMAZING, SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES:  1. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP. 2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK. 3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER. 4. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON. 5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH. 6. YOU NEED ONLY TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.  7. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. THOUGHT for the day: SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN THEY'RE PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.
