Today's Quotes::: “It isn't possible to love and part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal.”
“We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.”
“Spoon feeding in the long run teaches us nothing but the shape of the spoon.”
"One person with passion is better than forty people merely interested."
"You confuse what's important with what's impressive."
"Life is a public performance on the violin, in which you must learn the instrument as you go along."
Some Heavy Thoughts For Today:::“How fragile we are under the sheltering sky. Behind the sheltering sky is a vast dark universe, and we're just so small.”
"Life is lived only once. And the less seriously the better."
"Security is a false God. Begin to make sacrifices to it and you are lost."
"The only effort worth making is the one it takes to learn the geography of one's own nature."
"Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps 20. And yet it all seems limitless."
― Paul Bowles
Wife Thinks I Should Get Disability
When I retired, I went to the Social Security office to apply for
Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's
license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt." So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me," and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, "You should have dropped your pants... you might have gotten disability, too."
Today's Quotes...“Everyday begins like a blank chalkboard, on which each one of us can write the poem of our present and our dreams for the future.”
“Life is like a great teacher..... she will repeat the lesson until you learn.”
“If there is one lesson I've learned lately, it's the importance of telling the universe what you want.”
“Now I realize that the most profound lessons in the world typically come in the simplest of ways. I had to see, suffer, enjoy, and live what I have lived to arrive at this place of understanding.”
― Ricky Martin
When a hobo told Andy he should just let Opie "decide for himself" how he wanted to live… He had these words of Mayberry wisdom.
"No, I'm afraid it don't work that way. You can't let a young’n decide for himself. He'll grab at the first flashy thing with shiny ribbons on it. Then, when he finds out there's a hook in it, it's too late. Wrong ideas come packaged with so much glitter that it's hard to convince them that other things might be better in the long run. All a parent can do is say 'Wait' and 'Trust me' and try to keep temptation away."
How about a joke or two....

Today's Quotes:::"The door to the soul is unlocked; you do not need to please the doorkeeper, the door in front of you is yours, intended for you, and the doorkeeper obeys when spoken to."
"We spend our life until we’re twenty deciding what parts of ourself to put into the bag, and we spend the rest of our lives trying to get them out again."
"We make the path by walking."
"To be wild is not to be crazy or psychotic. True wildness is a love of nature, a delight in silence, a voice free to say spontaneous things, and an exuberant curiosity in the face of the unknown."
Today's Quotes:::“Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good.”
“You're never as good as you think you are when you win; and you're never as bad as you feel when you lose.”
“If you're not getting better you're getting worse.”
“Publicity is like poison. It doesn't hurt unless you swallow it.”
“The will to win is important, but the will to prepare to win is vital.”
“Believe deep down in your heart that you're destined to do great things.”

Jerry walks into the lingerie department of Macy’s and tells the sales lady, “I would like a Southern Baptist bra for my wife, size - 34B.”
With a quizzical look, the sales lady asks, “What kind of bra?”
He repeats, “A Southern Baptist bra. My wife said to tell you that she wanted a Southern Baptist bra and that you'd know what she wanted.”
“Oh, yes, now I understand,” says the sales lady. “We don’t get as many requests for them as we used to. Most of our customers lately want the Catholic bra, the Salvation Army bra, or the Presbyterian bra.”
Confused,and a little flustered, Jerry asks, “So, what are the differences?”
The sales lady responds. “It’s really quite simple. The Catholic bra supports the masses, the Salvation Army bra lifts the fallen, and the Presbyterian bra keeps them staunch and upright.”
He muses on that information for a minute and says, “Hmm. I know I’ll regret asking, but what does the Southern Baptist bra do?”
“Ah,” she replied, “the Southern Baptist bra makes mountains out of molehills!”
