Our family is a circle of strength and love.
With every birth and every union,
the circle grows.
Every joy shared adds more love.
Every crisis faced together makes the circle stronger.
I have a recipe for life,
The best one that I know;
I guarantee the end result...
Twas taught me long ago!
You start by mixing just a dash
Of humor with the day,
And then you add a cheery smile
As you go on your way.
Love's never out of season
So you add a large amount,
And I never measure sympathy;
You don't with things that count.
Toss in a bit of effort
And a lot of nerve and grit,
And hope makes all the difference,
For a thing improves with it.
You stir a bit of kindness in,
Along with patience, too,
And flavor it with gentleness
Whatever you may do.
And when the sun is setting,
You'll look back in joy to see
A worthwhile product of your toil
....Within my recipe!
***Grace E Easley
And mending too,
Are menial tasks
I have to do...
But loving my children
And making them smile,
Makes everything else
All worthwhile.
A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty,
He said...no.
She asked him if he would want to be with her forever...
and he said no.
She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry,
and once again he replied with a no.
She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face, the boy grabbed her arm and said....
You're not pretty....
you're beautiful
I don't want to be with you forever....
I NEED to be with you forever.
And I wouldn't cry if you were to leave.....
I'd die....
