Levity -- So Good for the SOUL!
I received this from a very good friend this morning; I especially liked the highlighted ones! ENJOY!!
Some of these are words to live by - my grandfather used a great many of these. Old Farmer's Advice
“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 stump.”
“A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.”
“Words that soak into your ears are whispered…....not yelled.”
“Meanness don't just happen overnight.”
“Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads.”
“Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.”
“It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.”
“You cannot 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.
“Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.”
“Live a good and honorable life, then 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 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.”
“Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God.”

The Background Story...
“Taking It To The Streets
A Rally for Peace in Our Communities/
Guinness Book of World Records Double Challenge
The mission of this event is to leverage the strength and notoriety of the Guinness Book of World Records brand to bring the Greater Plainfield community together around a positive platform, and our event vision is to bring together the community by having an event that will positively impact and highlight the rich reso...urces of Plainfield and the surrounding areas.
This rally is an answer to the negative images that plague Plainfield and other urban cities. This rally is an answer to critics who naysay and choose not to believe that cities and citizens of cities can rally around a positive cause and send a positive message. This rally will highlight a city that is determined to improve the condition of its people.
This is a rally that will make history by BREAKING TWO WORLD RECORDS! During this event, we will seek to break the records for Largest Gospel Choir (current record 1000) and Largest Number of People Performing Sign Language While Simultaneously Singing the Same Song (current record 4796). On October 2, 2010, between the hours of 9 a.m. & 6p.m., in Cedarbrook Park, Plainfield NJ, 10,000 individuals will sing with ONEVOICE. The registration fee is only $10.00 (Tax Deductible) per person to participate. There will be Food, Fun and Entertainment throughout the day.
Are you willing to be a part of something that will make a greater impact on our youth, our communities and future generations?
