MQTlogoa MORAL: To love is nothing, to be loved is something...!!!

.....A very poor man lived with his wife.

One day, his wife, who had very long hair asked him to buy her a comb for her hair to grow well and to be well-groomed. combThe man felt very sorry and said no. He explained that he did not even have enough money to fix the strap of his watch he had just broken. watchbandShe did not insist on her request.

The man went to work and passed by a watch shop, sold his damaged watch at a low price and went to buy a comb for his wife.

He came home in the evening with the comb in his hand ready to give to his wife.

He was surprised when he saw his wife with a very short hair cut.

She had sold her hair

white hair

and was holding a new watch band.

Tears flowed simultaneously from their eyes,

tears

not for the futility of their actions, but for the reciprocity of their love.

MORAL: To love is nothing, to be loved is something...!!!

OLDMAN  Hope you enjoyed the story, but there is More….. Take a real good look at the first picture..Did you notice::::

“The real beauty in this picture is the attention to detail that the artist, Octavio Ocampo took. Try this: squint your eyes a little and you’ll see that the man with the guitar fades away, and the old man staring into the old woman’s eyes really starts to pop out at you. Perhaps the scariest part of this illusion is that the younger woman has some really mean sideburns! Look out! Also, keep looking until you find: the young girl, the tequila bottle, and the giant vase! Quite a crazy optical illusion painting!” ( when I first saw the photo it was just of an old man and woman looking at each other.)

Memo to self:: Friday… played 18 holes golf at Westchester… did ok…

Bipolar Nation Update::Guns, Gangs and Morals

MQTlogoa I’m afraid this is a lack of Quality Time… SORRY

chicago

As the weather warms  more people frolic outdoors, plus it was the 4th of July:: Over the course of 84 hours during the Independence Day holiday in Chicago, 82 people were shot and 14 were killed. READ MORE  ( Maybe I missed this but I didn’t even see this mentioned on TV News.)

BUT THERE IS HOPE

RIFLE1 The town is called Rifle….

The grill is called Shooters. So it's no surprise that the waitresses have an unusual dress code, CBS News correspondent Barry Petersen reports. "I am carrying a Ruger 357 Blackhawk," said Ashlee Saenz, a waitress at Shooters. "I like the old style revolvers, and I just like big guns." READ MORE

Over The Cliff

MQTlogoa Quality time in the Hocking Hills….On the trail at The Cantwell Cliffs

DSC_0002

Two Indians, Running Bear and Little Beaver went to the outhouse teepee, situated on the edge of a cliff.

108px-Ninigret99PX-T~1 After using the outhouse teepee, they went back to the village. The next day, they again went to the outhouse teepee.

Running Bear said, "Terrible, terrible, the outhouse teepee smells to high heaven! What should we do? We can't ever use it smelling like that!" Little Beaver suggested, "Why don't we just push the outhouse teepee over the cliff, and go build another one?"

DSC_0012

They both agreed and pushed the outhouse teepee over the cliff.
A few days later, the chief of the tribe called a pow wow.

He asked," Who threw the outhouse teepee over the cliff?" No one answered. He then told this story.
When George Washington was a little boy, his father asked, "Who chopped down the cherry tree?" Little boy George Washington answered, "It was I father."

His father was so pleased with the answer, that he rewarded Little George Washington, and later in life, he became the Great leader of his nation.
"Now again, I ask, who pushed over the outhouse teepee?" Little Beaver said, It was I that pushed over the outhouse teepee, thinking he would get a reward. In that moment, the Chief jumped on Little Beaver and severely beat him. He ended up in the hospital.

DSC_0008DSC_0020

A month later, the Chief was visiting the hospital, and came across Little Beaver. Little beaver asked," Chief, how come you beat me up?"

The Chief answered, "George Washington's father wasn't in the Cherry Tree!"

Thoughts on Materialism

DSC_0032

“We have sacrificed the old immaterial gods, and now we are occupying the temple of the Market-God. He organizes our economy, our politics, our habits, our lives, and even provides us with rates and credit cards and gives us the appearance of happiness.
“It seems that we have been born only to consume and to consume, and when we can no longer consume, we have a feeling of frustration, and we suffer from poverty, and we are auto-marginalized.” Uruguay’s humble president, Jose Mujica

DSC_0043DSC_0004A

“President José Mujica of Uruguay, a 78-year-old former Marxist guerrilla who spent 14 years in prison, mostly in solitary confinement lives simply and rejects the perks of the presidency. Mujica has refused to live at the Presidential Palace or have a motorcade. He lives in a one-bedroom house on his wife’s farm and drives a 1987 Volkswagen. “There have been years when I would have been happy just to have a mattress,” IF you want to know a little more CLICK

JOETODDSAYS210 I need to learn a little more about Jose’ Mujica…. and just for today I’m going to be a little more grateful for what I have.

Grandpa & Granddaughter

grandpa

Granddaughter is sitting on Grandpa’s lap as he reads the paper not paying any attention to her. So she starts studying the wrinkles on his old face. She gets up the nerve and rubs her fingers over the wrinkles and then over her own face and looks more puzzled.

She finally asks, “Grandpa, did God make you?”

Jesus

'He sure did honey, a long long time ago”, he replied.

"Well, did God make me?` she asked.

"Yes He did, and that wasn’t too long ago," he answered.

She thought for a minute and then said, “Wow! He’s sure doing a lot better job these days isn’t He?”

grandpa2 Have a great day..
