"Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them

-- every day begin the task anew."

2009 Recession Budget Cut #1

Due to the recession in 2009 the government will start deporting all the crazy people to save money.

Bibliotherapy- therapy through books. Much cheaper than a therapist, and you can read them again and again to get different things from them at different stages of your life.

One thing the world might never have enough of is LOVE,

but the other thing, is books.

Watch...

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny

Wonderful thought!!

LIFE IS SHORT!

~~Truly Explains Life~~

Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he's been robbed. The fact is that most putts don't drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey…delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.

~Gordon B. Hinckley
