Throughout a day (any day) of total frustration...ergo my sig! "You can't rollerskate in a buffalo herd".

"Ours is not to reason (or is it "wonder"?) why...Ours is but to live (or is it "do"?) and (or is it "or"?) die! (<---dunno who said it...but I can fuck it up better than anyone I know!)

The game of life is the game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds, and words return to us sooner or later, with astounding accuracy! ~Florence Shinn (1871-1940) Writer~

Tending The Lawn
"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be." ~Robert Fulghum~

Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie. ~William Shakespeare~

I have never seen a monument erected to a pessimist. ~Paul Harvey...Radio Commentator~

Truce is better than Friction. ~Charles Herguth~

We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. ~Bertha Calloway~

Some think it's holding on that makes one strong; sometimes it's letting go. ~Sylvia Robinson~

There are spaces between our fingers so that another person's fingers can fill them in!

While we have the gift of life, it seems to me that the only tragedy is to allow part of us to die - whether it is our spirit, our creativity, or our glorious uniqueness. ~Gilda Radner~

Belief Is All You Need
A man was lost while driving through the countryside. As he tried to read a map, he accidently drove off the road into a ditch. Though he wasn't injured, his car was stuck deep in the mud. So the man walked to a nearby farm to ask for help.

"Warwick can get you out of that ditch," said the farmer, pointing to an old mule standing in a field. The man looked at the haggardly mule and looked at the farmer who just stood there repeating, "Yep, old Warwick can do the job." The man figured he had nothing to lose. The two men and Warwick made their way back to the ditch.

The farmer hitched the mule to the car. With a snap of the reins he shouted, "Pull, Fred! Pull, Jack! Pull, Ted! Pull, Warwick!" And the mule pulled the car from the ditch with very little effort.

The man was amazed! He thanked the farmer, patted the mule and asked, "Why did you call out all of those other names before you called Warwick?" The farmer grinned and said, "Old Warwick is just about blind. As long as he believes he's part of a team, he doesn't mind pulling." ~Adapted from Some Folks Feel the Rain - Others Just Get Wet...James W. Moore...Dimensions
