Words of wisdom

I love the last one. 🤣

The last one is just perfect.

Did you notice how much more intelligent your parents became after you were an adult ?

I like that one madeleine!
I must try to think of one or two. I may be some time …. 😁

I like the first one.

I am having more trouble than ever telling an older person's age.
I thought someone was an age a couple of years older than me. Then remembered my age, and added 10 years to hers

Your secrets are safe with your friends because they now can't remember them either.

Love all these very wise words

Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight!

I am afraid my experience was exactly the opposite.

You still haven’t learnt to act your age and hope you never will.

How true for first & last, but other people probably think that of us.
I certainly wish it were true for the second one 😂

Pagiarism !!! Madeleine45 ......

"When I was a boy of 14 my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much he'd learned in seven years."

The biggest lie you can tell yourself,
" I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it"

Very true Maw! 🤣

Spot on MawsRosie!

Maws Rosie totally agree. Age is a number not a definition. I currently have no intention of growing up although I do some things I have to stop and ask myself Why did you do that!

I meant boring grown up things.

" I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it"

Yes yes yes.
Am guilty of this.

I like the Sanskrit poem , framed and hung on my wall

yesterday is but a memory
Tomorrow is only a vision
But today well lived
Makes every yesterday a memory of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope
Look well therefore to this day

When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.

Mine is 'This too, shall pass'.

Oh yes, I am sure I have shared that sentiment many a time!

I like ‘ sudden prayers make God jump’
