The following was donated to my newsletter some years ago... I came across it and remembered some of the sour faces I'd seen at the shops earlier... seemed to me that some people needed to start the year off with a smile and a laugh... it might not bring instant fame and fortune, but it will make dealing with whatever awaits you in 2006 a lot easier! So, look in the mirror - if you look like you've just sucked a lemon, read on...
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a flat tyre.
The darkest hours come just before the dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbor's milk and newspaper, that's the time to do it.
Don't aspire to become irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
Never forget that like everyone else, you are unique.
Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
If you think nobody cares whether you're dead or alive, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.
Before you judge someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid skydiving.
Have you ever lent someone $20 and never seen that person again? It was probably worth it.
If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
Some days we are the flies; some days we are the windscreen.
The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
A closed mouth gathers no feet.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
When we are born we are naked, wet, hungry, penniless, and we get smacked on our behinds. From there on in, life gets worse.
And on that note, I wish you ALL a Happy and prosperous 2006 and whatever life throws at you, find something to smile about!
