Posted: 7/20/2007 10:26:15 PM | The most sage words of wisdom I've heard lately were uttered by someone I'm very close to, who told me (right after he thunked me on the forehead) "Do not cast your pearls before swine!"
Still working on putting that VERY wise advice into effect .... | |

Actually, Dave, you do have a partial truth there. But it wasn't God's fault. The solitude (the big gap) between the man and the woman happened after the serpent entered the garden and has been going on ever since. That is NOT the way God wanted it to be.  | |

A quote I cut out years ago and do now know who said it is:
"Progress involves risk. You can't steal second base and keep your foot on first." | |

If you get to thinkin yer a person of some influence, try orderin somebody else's dog around.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
Good judgement comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgement.

Posted: 7/21/2007 2:03:41 AM | | "What's important NOW?" My mother cut this headline out of a newspaper or magazine and taped it on the inside of the pantry door - along with other bits of wisdom. She raised seven children and was married to a man who could be childlike at times. I think she used this phrase as a mantra in a very busy household. I use it that way too whenever I start to feel overwhelmed by the busyness in my life. | |
