Wednesday Wisdom...

An old Farmer's Words of Wisdom
we could all live by.......

(Advice from Canman)

Your  fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and  bull-strong.

Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

A bumble bee is considerably faster than
a John Deere tractor.

Words that soak into your ears  are whispered....
not yelled.

Meanness don't just happen overnight.

Forgive your enemies; it messes  up their heads.

Do not corner something that you  know is
meaner than you.

It don't take a very big  person to carry a grudge.

You cannot unsay a cruel word.

Every path has a few puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

The  best sermons are lived, not preached.

Most of the  stuff people worry about,
ain't never gonna happen anyway.

Don't judge folks by their relatives.

Remember that silence is sometimes
the best  answer.

Live a good and honorable life, then when  you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second  time.

Don't interfere with somethin'
that ain't bothering you none.

Timin' has a lot to do with the outcome of
a rain dance.

If you find yourself  in a hole, the first thing to do is
stop diggin'.

Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have  to deal with, watches you from the mirror
every mornin'.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Good  judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from  bad judgment.

Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier
than puttin' it back in.

If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some
influence, try orderin' somebody
else's dog around.

Live simply,  love generously, care deeply,

Speak kindly, and leave  the rest to God.

Don't pick  a fight with an old man.
If he is too old to fight, he'll  just kill  you.


And, finally.........................................
