We have such a wonderful and diverse group of people here at FN. Sometimes we have our up times and sometimes we have our down times. And like any other group of people or family, we react to different things in different ways.

I found a site containing "Wise and Positive Sayings" and decided to post them here. I hope all of you will remember some of your favs too. Those of you from around the world - please share.

I particularly like this one:

Do for others with no desire of returned favors. We all should plant some trees we'll never sit under.

Will Rogers is one of the most famous for sayings:

....and I had no idea a website had been set up for him: http://www.willrogers.org/

Everybody is ignorant, only at different subjects.

Everything is funny as long as it is happening
to somebody else.

Civilization has taught us to eat with a fork, but even now
if nobody is around, we use our fingers.

I never lack material for my humor column when
Congress is in session.

Live so that you wouldn't mind selling your pet parrot
to the town gossip.

I don't make jokes. I just watch the government
and report the facts.

Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.

No debt ever comes due at a good time, yet borrowing is
the only thing that's handy all the time.

One way to solve the traffic problem would be to keep
all the cars that aren't paid for off the streets.

Politics has become so expensive that it takes a lot of
money to even be defeated.

The Income Tax has made more Liars out of the
American people than Golf has.

The Venus de Milo is a good example of what happens to somebody who won't stop biting her fingernails.

Get someone else to blow your horn and the sound
will carry twice as far.

Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over
if you just sit there.

Diplomats are just as essential to starting a war as soldiers are for finishing it... You take diplomacy out of war, and
the thing would fall flat in a week.

The good fortune to run into the ones that I do
And the eyesight to tell the difference."

Thank you for finding these sites. We made sure on our recent trip we discussed nothing negative that we are now facing or negative that have happened in recent months.
We enjoyed it so much, we also promised each other to not let negative issues bog us down and hide our fun loving positive spirit we both enjoy.
Now that we are home, it is only positive subjects we discuss. All other things will be taken care of in due time and process.

Thanks again Wingsy, I'll look in the file and see what I can find to contribute positive to your new thread.
