Just some babbling...

Got into the office this morning and was thinking about an email I received from a good friend last week - this is how it ended:

And ps, don’t put stress on yourself to know all the answers right now!! Do any of us ever know all the answers?!?! Just know that things have a way of falling into place on their own!

Thought I would share it with all of you because if you are anything like me, stress and confusion is part of your daily routine. When its all said and done, do we have much control? So everyone raise your glass and heres to, learning how to roll with the punches, stand when we feel like stumbling and halting when we want to run like hell!! =)

And just for the heck of it, here are some neat Irish toasts that I dug up. Enjoy!!

May you have warm words on a cold evening, a full moon on a dark night, and a smooth road all the way to your door.

May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.

Always remember to forget
The troubles that passed away.
But never forget to remember
The blessings that come each day.

May you have the hindsight to know where you've been,
The foresight to know where you are going,
And the insight to know when you have gone too far. (Really like this one!)

May misfortune follow you the rest of your life, and never catch up.

'Sláinte chuig na fir, agus go mairfidh na mná go deo.'
Health to the men, and may the women live forever!

Happy Hump Day

What a fabulous post!

I have a Danish friend whose father always used to toast:

"Here's champagne to your real friends,
And real pain to your sham friends."


Love it. :-)
