Found these on my computer tonight . Don't know where I got them , but thought that they needed posting . Wish everyone in life these days practiced these ideas.




I'm sure these have been around a while but they still make sense.





Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.

Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.

A bumble bee is considerably faster than any tractor.

The words that soak into your ears are whispered...not yelled.

Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.

Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads.

Do not corner somethin' that you know is meaner than you.

It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

You can't unsay a cruel word.

Every path has a few puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

The best sermons are lived, not preached.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.

Don't judge folks by their relatives, but by their friends.

Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer, but you can always have an opinion.

Live a good, honorable life.. when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.

Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't bothering you none.

Timing has got a lot to do with the outcome of a Rain dance.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.

Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.

If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around..


How true these statements are ....

P. S. Can anyone else come up with anymore to add to these that ring true in life ?
 
Thanks for posting that. I enjoy reading bits of wisdom like that. Sometimes the best advice is put in the simplest words.
I saw one recently, something to the effect, "Trust everyone, but count your chickens and keep your doors locked."
 
ShadetreeRet,

That statement is like these old sayings -


In God We Trust ,All Others Pay Cash.

Don't Steal From The Government . They Hate The Competition .
