all she wants to do is,

dance, dance,
dance . . .
Did you know that it's Beautiful Women Month?
Well, it is and that means you !!!
Below is a wonderful
poem Audrey Hepburn wrote
when asked to share her 'beauty tips.'
It was read at her funeral years later.

For attractive lips ,
speak words of kindness...

For lovely eyes ,
seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure ,
share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair ,
let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.

For poise ,
walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone...

People, even more than things, have to be restored,
renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed;
never throw out anyone.

Remember,
if you ever need a helping hand,
you will find one at the end of each of your arms.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands;
one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.
If you share this with another woman,
something good will happen.
You will boost another woman's self esteem,
and she will know that you care about her.

It's
BEAUTIFUL Women Month
TAG
YOU'RE IT!

Dance
On, Sister!!!

On a positive note....


I've learned that no matter what happens, or
how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better 
tomorrow, if for no other reason than a sense of relief that 
whatever it was, didn't get worse!.

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way
he/she handles these four things: a rainy day, lost luggage, 
screaming two year olds, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your
parents, you'll 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 very 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.

I've 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 that human touch - holding hands, a warm
hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

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

I've learned that if you are going through Hell it is best to keep
going.

I've learned that you should tell someone you care
about them. Sometimes they just need a little something 
to make them smile.

I want to live my Next Life Backwards!

You start out dead and get that out of the way right off the bat.
Then, you wake up in a nursing home feeling better every day.



When you are kicked out of the home for being too healthy,
you spend several years enjoying your retirement and collecting pension checks.
When you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day.
You work 40 years or so, getting younger every day until pretty soon you're too young to work. So then, you go to high school: play sports, date, drink and party.
As you get even younger, you become a kid again. You go to primary school, play, and have no responsibilities. In a few years, you become a baby and everyone runs themselves ragged keeping you happy. You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, spa-like conditions: central heating, room service on tap.
Until finally…
You finish off as an orgasm. I rest my case!

Laughter


"Laughter is the shortest distance between two people."
~Victor Borge

Mothers & Children

"It is quite surprising how many children survive in spite of their mothers"
~Norman Douglas

Men and Marriage

We can not really love anybody with whom we cannot laugh.
~Agnes Repplier

Love Those Wrinkles


"At this point, I lie in bed at night and hear myself wrinkle. It wakes me up. The wrinkling comes in loud and clear because it is happening so near my ears. One night my husband sat right up in the bed and whispered, "The house is settling...or is that you wrinkling again?" But the good news is... wrinkles not only come from time and the sun, they also come from laughing at the absurdities of life, which increase exponentially after 40. They also come from looking surprised when your child hands you a woolly worm from the garden. They come from smiling when you see an old friend who is as wrinkled as you are. They are a roadmap of experience that you alone have enjoyed. ~ Liz Curtis Higgs
