Hi!
This might not be the right place to post this but here goes ...........
1. It's important to have roots.
2. In today's complex world, it pays to branch out.
3. If you really believe in something, don't be afraid to go out
on a limb.
4. Be flexible so you don't break when a harsh wind blows.
5. Sometimes you have to shed your old bark in order to grow.
6. If you want to maintain accurate records, keep a log.
7. It's okay to be a late bloomer.
8. Avoid people who would like to cut you down.
9. As you approach the autumn of your life, you will show your
true colors. You could be brilliant!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Food for thought:
People are often unreasonable,
Illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind,
People may accuse you of selfish,
ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful,
You will win some false friends
and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank,
People may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building,
Someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
They may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
People will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have,
And it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis,
It is between you and God;
It never was between you and them anyway.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Forgiveness
When you forgive you release critical judgement of yourself as well as of others. You lighten up. You do not cling to negative experiences that resulted from decisions that you made while you were learning.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Love and Hugs to all present,
Raymond
