ok, I'm laughing tears here.. brilliantly bodacious!
Aley, you're so sharp sometimes its slightly scary.
- if anyone oughtta be speechless, its me ;-)
love ya.. tara <3
I WANT them kittens.. My Aslan now gone was just like that.
Did someone forget to tell the kitty that happiness is a choice?
I was noticing that the kitten in the background doesn't seem moved by compassion.
Tara!
I think so many people just wait for happiness and miss out their whole lives…they are like the guy that asks God to send help as he is on the roof during a flood and needs a lift. He pleads to God for help…then a guy with a ladder comes and the guy says: nah, I'm ok, god is coming…then someone comes in a boat and he says again, nope, I am ok. Then, a helicopter hovers and sends a rope, the guy still declines…
When he dies. god comes to him and he asksGod why he did not help…god tells him he sent a ladder, a boat and a helicopter…why did he refuse them? …the guy thought God was going to come personally I guess…
What we think things should look like can deceive us, eh? The package may not look like we expect…but we can choose it if we open our eyes to the magic….just like happiness…!!!
Ben; that other kitty is not choosing happiness…and look at his forlorn little mug! LOL
Bless you two!
Aley
tee..hee.. here's another: One of God's angels had been watching a man praying every day for more than five years that he win the lotto.. this man was a good christian so the angel was getting a bit pissed off with God that he didn't let the man win & told God so… God replied to the Angel, 'well, if you can get him to buy a lotto coupon, I'll be happy to let him win! ;-)
& yeah, expectation is such a silly notion..a sure setup for disappointment..
some things just strike me as highly illogical tsk..
oh.. that reminds me of another lil story.. there were these two workmates always hanging out together for lunch & everyday one of them would complain about the contents of his lunchbox; He'd open it, roll his eyes & go: 'oh no, not again, it's the same as yesterday.'
One day the other guy had it & said 'why don't you just ask your wife to make you something different?' The whiner replied. 'wife? I have no wife, I make my own lunch'..
Hi Aley, I tried to post on this earlier unsuccessfully, my you are on the ball, so true, and the laughing kitties are so cuuuute
most certainly!
joy and laughter, dear one,
CG
BINGO - right on!
Thanks.
I choose to be happy today!
woohoo
