Do you remember? ........ Desiderata

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.







Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.



Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

A Joke - Girls Night Out

The other night I was invited out for a night with "the girls." I told My Husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise!"
Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy. Around 3 A.m., a bit loaded, I headed for home.
Just as I got in the door, the Cuckoo Clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3 times.
Quickly, realizing my Husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times.
I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution, in
Order to escape a possible conflict with him. (Even when totally smashed...3 Cuckoos Plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = MIDNITE!)
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him "Midnight". He didn't seem pissed off at all. Whew! Got away with that One!
Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock." When I asked him why?, he Said,
"Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said, "OhBR>sh@#.",
Cuckooed 4 more times, cleared it's throat, cuckooed another 3 times,
Giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and

Farted."

Friends are just strangers you haven't met yet !!!

A Joke

CYRUS SAYS: Daddy, how was I born?

DAD SAYS: Ah, my son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Well, you see, your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on MSN. Then I set up a date with your Mom via e-mail, and we met at a cyber-cafe.

We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall. And since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later, a blessed little Pop-Up appeared and said: You've Got
Male!

Warning! This Scam Is Real...

Subject: [Avni] Warning! This Scam Is Real...

ALERT!  The latest scam.  This one is real, so be careful.

I am a victim of the latest scam which is happening in shopping mall parking lots here in Ohio, and the same may be occurring in other states. Two good looking young women come up to your car as you are parking, one starts wiping your windshield with a rag and the other comes to your window and bends over so far her breasts just about fall out of her blouse.  While you're distracted, the other one lets herself in the backseat.

At that point, both are begging you for a ride home. Be very wary, because as soon as you start driving, one of them will take off her shirt and rub her  breasts on you while the other climbs over the seat and unzips your pants.  This is when they steal your wallet!!!!!   I was robbed last Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  I couldn't find them on Saturday.
