Here's a very quick one for ya.......Q: What does it mean when a man is in your bed gasping for breath and calling your name?A: You didn't hold the pillow down long enough.
No one in particular, that is apart from the guy on the Cilit Bang advert, like a Slinky, I'd happily push him down the stairs. I suspect he's the love child of the 1970's Shake and Vac woman!!! Apart from him.....just good, decent people who are prepared to go the extra distance to make an impression on those who self proclaim to lead. This isn't a dress rehersal and what you do with your life should leave a legacy for others to continue. We should all, in our own ways make a difference, stand tall for those who's voices are small, shout loud so they may be heard. By the way, I don't want to meet any Myspace people called 'Funny' because when looking for a laugh I did a search for them.........What a gormless, boring bunch of bum wipes they are! I'm a big believer in destiny and if you're supposed to cross paths with someone on this plain then you will......no matter who it is......one day it could be the elderly mother of the guy that owns the corner shop.....another it could be Nelson Mandela....Who knows! I know that everyone I meet will have a direct bearing on my life and that it happens in a pre-ordained way, like a domino effect, it's knock on and creates ripples that eminate from our own little pond out into the ocean that is mankind! Shit there goes the aquatic theme again........Sod the waders, someone chuck me a snorkle and water wings, I'm going in there!!! I think its important to be the best you can and try to take what I can from the following passage!"Go placidly among the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and agressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may be vain or bitter, for always will there be greater or lesser persons than yourself. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and stars; you have a right to be here. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it's still a beautiful world."
