Hi Kathy.

  Those statements are so true.  In fact if it weren't for False teeth, I'd have no teeth at all.    Never get in the way of a Golfer.  I remember when I was in High School and finally got my partial plate.  I was so excited and proud because for the first time since the second grade, I could smile.  Back then, (Because I don't know if they have them noe), when I got to Home room I waited for everyone to show up.  I was so, so excited.  Once everyone arrived, I stood up, took my teeth out, waved them over my head and yelled "Look everyone!!!  I've got Falsees."  A young, pretty girl across the room immediately sprang to her feet, reached into her blouse, pulled out two orbs, raised them over her head and yelled "So don't I!!!"  True story.  I have got to be me, and, although many people feel that I lead a happy life, I don't.  I won'tlie to keep from hurting a friends feelings because I feel that later, when they learn the truth, they will feelthat I betrayed them.  I have had many people that felt that I was not their friend because I told them what they needed to hear, not what they wanted to hear.  So, there are times when a person appears to be anything but a friend, turns out to be the only friend that you have.  Now, there are exceptions to the rule, and any man that has been married at least once, knows the rule.  If my wife puts on a dress, displays it in front of me and says, "Honey, does this dress make me look fat?" my answer is obviously going to be, "Of course not.  You look beautiful!!", but of course next I'll have the task of trying to hide the dress somewhere where she will never ever find it so that she will never wear that dress in public.  When I was married to my first wife who weighed in at around three hundred and thirty pounds, we honeymooned in Massachusetts.  For the most part she would wear clothes that complimented her weight.  How ever, we went to visit my brother at his summer home on Cape Cod.  My wife was excited because she was able to wear the new Bikini that she bought that I did not know about.  Before I could stop her, she walked out on to the beach wearing her pink Bikini, scaring all the kids on the beach.  They though an Albino Whale washed up on shore.  They were Shell schocked.            By the way, what was the subject again?

God Bless You

Hi Kathy

That is so true, but we just pick ourselves up.

Warm hugs

You always Give your friends the best Kathy. Thank you

Warm regards ;)

Thank you, Kathy, those words were much needed today.

All the things you wrote are true and have happened to many of during our long or short lives.  One that struck home here was this one:

"If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway."

For a few moments (I) forgot that it was okay to be ME!
All of us are unique in our own special way and when you get knocked down, just get up, wipe off the dirt, stand straight and tall, and be proud to be "who you are and what you are".

Have a wonderful day, you just made mine a little better.

TRUE,TRUE. Sometimes life can kick us in the mouth. We must keep trying to do what is right. Many people will mock us for that but we still must go on.
