“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted"...

“Constant kindness can accomplish much. For just as the sun melts ice, kindness causes misunderstandings, mistrusts, and hostilities to evaporate...A single act of kindness takes root in all directions and these roots spring up and make new trees.”

THE 7 RULES OF LIFE...

1) Make peace with your past...so it won't disturb your future.

2) What other people think of you is none of your business.

3) The only person in charge of your happiness is you.

4) Don't compare your life to others, because comparison is the thief of joy.

5) Time heals almost everything. So give it time.

6) STOP thinking so much. It's alright not to know all the answers.

7) Smile. You don't own all the problems out there in the world.

A wise word for those fellas to consider, who are even "wise" enough to grasp the deeper meaning of my quote.

Lady Gaga offers one woman's perspective...

And now, its time for a little history lesson…
--

What's the difference between the legendary Roman Emperor Giulio Cesare and a common dominatrix?

He said… "I came! I saw! I conquered!"

"She" said… "I saw! I conquered! I came!"

Some mysteries through the ages...and food for thought....
-

If Cinderella's shoe were such a perfect fit, then why did it fall off? LOL

If friends will buy you food, then why is it that best friends always eat your food?

Why is it, that at night I can't seem to fall asleep. And Yet, in the morning, I can't seem to wake up?

Why is it that some people are like clouds? When they go away, the day suddenly brightens up?

Good mornin' gents! "Top of the day to you" as they say back in Ireland.

It's Monday morning. The start of a brand new week that holds endless possibilities (both good and bad.)

So here's a little gem for everyone to keep in mind to start the week off on the right foot. It sets a proper tone. Let it be your mantra, if you will...

"It's nice to be important. But it's more important to always be nice."

LOL. Judging from the mentality and infantile comments a few posters constantly put on display on this forum, I'd say he's a "very little man." LOL

IMPORTANT RULES TO REMEMBER IN LIFE:
1. Money cannot buy happiness, but it’s more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes than on a bicycle.
2. Forgive your enemy, but remember the bastard’s name.
3. Help a man when he is in trouble, and he'll be sure to remember you when he is in trouble again.
4. Many people are alive only because it’s illegal to shoot them.
5. Alcohol does not solve any problems, but then again, neither does milk.
