Just Saying

  "Most sinners know who their forgivers will be, and that, more than anything, is what makes it a sin."

Nothing is more difficult, after you say, "I love you," than explaining what you didn't mean by it.

Yours Truly in The Quote Garden

The Quote Garden website contains hundreds of my quotes.  Here are a few I especially like.

"Gratitude, friendship, respect -- funny how it's never called loyalty when there's actually a reason for it."

"When you are one of the pieces, it doesn't seem like a game."

"It is easier to be the hero of the moment than the hero of every drudging hour and every grinding day."

"When everybody knows the shortcut, the long way around is the shortcut."

"In the best of relationships you have two people who cannot think of anything that was not part of the deal."

That Daily Grind Again

It's a tricky thing -- knowing the life you want to live, knowing what makes it possible and not letting what makes it possible keep you from living it.

 

There are people who, if they chased a butterfly, it would take them to the office.

A good thing to remember is that it's not usually your employer who writes your obituary.

Never postpone taking a vacation thinking you won't get another chance to postpone taking  a vacation.

The City of Happiness

"Most of us, in our life's journey, never reach the City of Happiness, not because its environs are forbidding but because they are inviting, and so we settle in East Happiness or West Happiness."

Bumper Stickers

"This vehicle decelerates in the passing lane."

"Turn signal not a guarantee of future performance."


"I stop for flashing blue lights."

"Driver of the Month -- August 1956"


"My son is an honor student at Ed's Online University."


"This car climbed Death Valley."



 
A Bonus Thought 
 

"Having a monthly subscription payment taken directly from your bank account is not only a convenience but, after death, a form of immortality."

Best Friend

You were the person I'd run to

To tell of some news that I'd heard,

The person I'd always turn to

When life started getting absurd.

You were the one I would run to,

You were the friend  'round the  bend

Who'd always come up with a reason 

Why all would be well in the end.

 You were the person I'd run to,

In whom I could always confide,

Until that day you were suddenly gone...

 ...And I ran to tell you who died.

Time

Time -- that which reveals all lies, revises all forecasts and renders inadequate all excuses.

 

No matter how you rush about, you will notice at the end of the day that you traveled at the speed of time.

  

Nothing lasts forever, although we often underestimate how long it will last in the meantime.

I live on a tiny planet orbiting a minor star.  Each time the planet completes an orbit, I count off a segment of my life.  Why do I do this?  I dunno, it passes the time.
