What I've learnt - GoFuckYourself.com

Paul Markham · 11-09-2002, 03:57 AM

On a positive note, I've learned that no matter what happens, how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way that he/she handles three things: rainy days, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you will miss them when they're gone from your life.

I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life."

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the best you can, happiness will find you.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

Ive learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

I've learned that every day; you should reach out and touch someone. People love human touches, holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learned people will forget what you said and what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.

Since we're being positive....

"Work Hard and Always Hold Lofty Dreams In Your Heart.
Be Kind And Thoughtful to Others, Be Fair To All, And Live Each Day Fully,
Without Worrying About The Days Gone Or The Days To Come.

The Quality Of The Years Depends On The Quality Of The Way
You Choose To Live Every Minute - So Do Not Rest,
Look The Challenge Of Life Squarely In The Face And Attack
With All The Strength And Purity Your Heart Holds."

I see you're only wearing one catcher's mitt.

BUT!

You throw like a GIRL!

THE WOODEN BOWL
A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year old grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table, but the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled onto the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about Grandfather," said his son. "I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor." So he and his wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl. When the family glanced in Grandfather's direction, he sometimes had a tear in his eye, as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?" Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work. The words so struck the parents that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no words were spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening, the husband took Grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days, he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

There is only one lesson I have learnt in life.. and its the most important one....

There are NO 'smart' people, only those who make it their goal to learn.

No matter how complicated the task, or how difficult the situation.. If someone can do it.. I can do it.. all it takes is desire.

oh... and dont ever start licking it... until you smell it.

Very true, I left school at 14, much to the teachers relief, and started out washing cars.

Now run a company that employs 9 people and not doing too bad.

Just hard work and persistance.
