  • I had to have a break today. After all, it is a long weekend. My students will understand why their reports remain unopened on my computer, why their discussion posts are still unread, why I am ignoring their emails. Right?


    I had to take a few minutes to float around Xangaland, to read the words of others, to escape into this realm of relaxation.


    Your words help my words to come together, to combine to make sentences, to tell tales. For that, I am thankful.


    Today, in my wanderings, I found the following truisms, thoughts, questions to ponder, and words of wisdom:


    From Rosebudsinwyo: “God bless mothers, for they understand what pain is… Pain is giving birth and then watching your heart walk around outside your body for the rest of your life.”


    From Isismoon: "Religion is like a used car, you have to be very careful what you buy."


    From PlanetDream: "Friends with no faces can be extremely handy in the middle of the night."


    And from josaju: "Why is it that we humans have such a tendency to underestimate creatures other than ourselves?"


    HAPPY LONG WEEKEND TO ONE AND ALL!

  • i love words of wisdom, unless they make me ponder too much and then my brain just hurts.  congrats to Nic on getting his license . 

  • Thanks for stopping by...Yes it does amaze me that people are so arrogant and give animals such little credit..

  • Enjoy your long weekend!

  • "your heart walking around outside your body". That is a description that will live in my memory. It is perfect.

    Thank you, my dear, for stopping by. Somehow you always find time to stop  by and you are much busier than I will ever be!

  • So many wonderful people and so much wisdom.

    I'm really feeling "my heart walking around outside my body" this week. Ouch!

  • Enjoy the long weekend ... you've earned some rest and relaxation.  I hope you're snuggled up in bed right now with a cup of coffee and your sweetheart.  If I were you, I wouldn't get out of bed or out of your jammies all day!  Now if only I was there for a long, leisurely game of Scrabble .....

  • :fl02:  There is a lot lof knowledge to be gained in xangaland, isn't there?

  • Thank you for stopping by.    I hope your weekend was restful.  Poetic
