Quirky thoughts on my birthday!
Join me in exploring some “wisdom” below.
Please pick your favorite one and let me know your favorite in the comment section at the end.
“They” say…
1. Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the more you have, the longer you live.
2. Drive carefully…It’s not only cars that can be recalled by their Maker.
3. Accept the fact that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue!
4. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
5. Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
7. Since it’s the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
8. When everything’s coming your way, you’re in the wrong lane.
9. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won’t have a leg to stand on.
10. Twain said…
11. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
12. And then Einstein has said…
13.
Life has been, and continues to be, good! There’s always so much to see, hear, do, and enjoy no matter which birthday it is.
Some of this “wisdom” reminds us that
- life is funny,
- that life is a never-ending adventure,
- and that we are blessed each day when we wake up!
So, tell me what “wisdom” do YOU have to share with us?
I look forward to hearing from you, my friends!
(just consider your response as a gift for my birthday!)

Well, this is one happy worm! No ‘early birds’ for me. Then there’s the need to learn to keep my words soft and sweet, in case I have to eat them. I hate having to apologize for the ‘unsweet’ things that have come out of my mouth – and it happens more than is needful.
So the next ‘sweet thing’ is HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAT!
Happy Birthday, Pat.
Well, since I have always been early to bed, early to rise, guess I will have to collect worms and go fishing.
Happy Birthday Pat!!!
Today is really a birthday event – yours, granddaughter Grifan’s and grandson Carter!
When everything’s coming your way you are in the wrong lane! Life if full of “things” coming and not coming your way so you must learn to embrace them all!!
Happy Birthday Pat and many more. I liked the first quote. The more you have the longer you live. I have an Uncle who is 103 and he will tell you he never planned on living past 100 he just got up every day.
I hope it’s not to late to say “Happy Birthday” Pat. Brother Vic will celebrate his 92nd tomorrow, 4th of July! I like #4 & 13. I tend to struggle a little with both.
Happy birthday Pat—-One day late! I Love you and always look forward to seeing you. Number 10 is my favorite! I’m working on making more wrinkles!
