'''cut your own firewood...

you will get warm twice...""

......its an old adage.....but in this ''modern ''  world...where so many hold out a hand for some silver to fall in....it has a deeper meaning.....

Whenever my son rambles on about things he thinks he knows, I remind him this...

The empty wagon makes the most noise.

 

Words of my father...

Nothing lasts forever.

 

I have now been married longer than my father was...

I have more respect for people like this who have to wash their hands to pee rather than those that need to wash after peeing. Dad taught me two things. "Don't pee into the wind?" and "Don't pee on your fingers?"

Here's an except from an article I read earlier today.   The entire article is worth reading. (https://isonomiaquarterly.com/archive/volume-1-issue-2/life-lessons-from-the-death-bed/).

To me, these qualify as words to live by.

I’ve learned that it is so important not to get lost in the weeds of everyday life. If today sucked, oh well. There’s always tomorrow. And at least on our bad days, we still have people around us who love us, help us, and want the best for us. I’ve learned to savor each moment, and I’ve learned to be thankful, because things can very quickly change.  

But most importantly, I’ve learned that when I leave this earth for a better home someday, the only thing I’ll take is what I gave away.
