No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.

Common sense from an old farmer (condensed)

* Keep skunks, bankers and lawyers at a distance.
* A bumble bee  is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.
*Words that soak into your  ears are whispered...not yelled.
* Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.
* It don't take a very big person  to carry a grudge.
* Don't interfere with somethin' that ain 't botherin' you none.
* The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.
* 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.
* Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
* Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.

Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.

Kevyn Aucoin

He smiles when I enter a room.
He calls me love, not babe, and I feel his love.
He is proud to introduce me to his friends even when I am in my sweats.
He thinks I am beautiful before I go to the hairdresser.
He is a keeper.
Now......if I could just find him.  ;). :-*

just popped in my head.. not sure where I heard it or who said it..

    The difference between dogs and cats:  Cats think they are god.  Dogs think you are god.

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

The problem with cats is that they get the exact same look on their face whether they see a moth or an axe-murderer.
