The following tidbits came from a lady who likes to do a Happy Dance. At least that what she says…what people say and what people do are often two very different things. The good news is, this is the internet, and what she does is unlikely to affect PG, so he can focus on what she says. There will be some counter comments from PG scattered throughout, designated by a method which has not revealed itself yet.
Smiling does not necessarily solve a problem, but it brightens the path toward a solution.//Never take for granted the time I have to spend with the people I love.//Chocolate… * Drool * (Refer back to Life Lesson #1.)//Not everybody will like me. It doesn’t mean I need to dislike them in return.//Qué será será. (Doris Day was very very different in real life from the characters she played.)// Barbie? Sucks. (That’s not what Ken says.)//Prayers are heard and answered.(NOT)//In the “race of life” there will be times I that I fall. Falling is okay, staying on the ground is not.//Thirty sparklers and a match should never, under any circumstance, be left to my care. Ever.//Never say the phrase, “Things couldn’t be worse.”They can.// Anything worth attaining truly does take work. Lots of it.//And plenty of faith.( It is a shame that once people decided that religion was a dirty word, they started to use faith as a substitute. Now faith is about to become a dirty word, which is a shame. Faith in yourself is essential, no matter what some say. Faith in G-d can come in mighty handy. Faith in trite sayings is begging to be disappointed.)//“The flame shall not hurt thee/I only design thy dross to consume/and thy gold to refine.” (“My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night; but ah, my foes, and oh, my friends – it gives a lovely light! “Edna St. Vincent Millay )( When you borrow a quote from someone, use quote marks and give credit to the proper author. You should think of enough clever things on your own ) ( While typing the last bit, the text started to erase what was typed in before it. This is called autotyping, and is very annoying. If you hit the insert key, it will stop. Usually. )// Never announce disinterest in the Twilight series while standing in line at a bookstore full of women holding the latest edition. Murderous stares will ensue.//There will never be enough time to read all of the books I desire to read.//A broken heart will mend.//Living in the past wastes the present. (Beware of people who criticize living in the past. They are often hypocrites.) // Learning from the past can brighten the future. ( Livestock does much better in the pasture than the future.)//“A scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, ‘I survived.’” – C.C.//Never panic when trapped in an elevator with an eleven-year-old. Start singing TV theme songs instead. ( Once PG waited an hour for Sylvester Stallone to make a personal appearance. Rambo did not appear. When PG got back to the office, he was stuck in the elevator with a young lady who did not like him. The non appearance of Stallone gave him something to talk about.)//Trying to outrun a pit-bull while wearing a walking cast is a frightful (yet comical) experience.//Walking face-first into a marble pillar? Located in the city bank? It’s not the end of the world.//But change banks.//Health is a blessing. ( PG has been known to suffer from gout. When he goes for a walk, he knows what a blessing it is to walk without pain.)// Laughing is the most wonderful sound.( When someone is laughing at you, it can be annoying.)//Sometimes a good cry is all I need.//Not every story has a happy ending.//Faith is not sitting still, waiting for something to happen.//It is not all about me. (But you are important. If something is not working for you, do you really need to be doing it? The “not all about you” argument is frequently used by selfish people who do not have your best interests at heart.)// Dancing the Hokey Pokey with my nephews and nieces? Best. Time. Ever.//The little things are what matter.//“I love you.” These words mean nothing when they are just words. ( Hallmark cards is not using that line.)//Google does not know everything.//Neither does Wikipedia.//Hearing and listening = two different things.//Mind over matter. Sometimes it works.//Kermit the Frog is made of awesome.//I will always lose in a staring contest.//Gratitude is more attractive than greed.
