thought this was lovely If someone is too tired to give you a smile, leave one of your own because no-one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give !!! xxLynnxx

The old saying.....Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me...... Never a wrong word was spoken. Once a word is spoken it cannot be taken back. Life is far too short to give in to hate and jelousy. I have a friend who`s daughter would not listen to some very good and sound advice and this has resulted in the pair not speaking, even though they are at the same venue once a week. I 'dropped a word' into the ear of the daughter........'Think about building bridges as you are a long time dead'.....Sadly she has not bought any bricks, cement or metal, to even start some sort of foundation. The world would be such a happy place if understanding and tolerance came from grasss roots, and I think that means you and me. Kathlyn

I'll be happy when... we convinced ourselves that life will be better after we get married,have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when thay aer. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when thay are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we retire. The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. it's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with***and remember that time waits for no one. so stop waiting... until your car or home is paid off. Until you get a new car or home. Until your kids leave the house. Until you go back to school. Until you finish school. Until you lose 10 lbs. Until you gain 10 lbs. Until your kids get married. Until you get a divorce. Until you have kids. Until you retire. Until summer. Until spring. Until a winter. Until you die. There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not to destination. So work like you don't need money, live like you've never been hurt, and, dance's like no warns of watching. I it really hope that you like this be happy take care you guys life's too short happy dancing. I'm not watching promise . Lynne. x

Very good advice. I do try to be helpful, supportive and kind to everyone. When I find it a little difficult because of a difference of opinion I always remember the old adage 'If you can't say anything nice say nothing at all'. Once a word is either spoken or written it can not be taken back. There are far more lovely people on this site than there are nasty ones. Beryl x

Hello everybody I'm really glad the you like those sayings I have got a lot's more I am so determined to keep this thread to the top. I'm sure you're all going to get fed up with me but I truly belief if we all keep posting to this thread we will soon have this side back to its happy helpful nice place to be. You know the old saying when we unite and agree we can move mountains. When when nasty and horrible well we all know where the Mole lives in the hole. Take care Lynne.

just a couple more little thoughts for you all to share Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you will help them become what they are capable of being !!! Treat everyone with politeness even those who are rude to you, not because they are nice but because you are !!! xxLynnxx
