King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

Love Letter

My Dear Wife,

I look forward to making plans with you. I love to do that. Goals are an important part of life and success, and I spend plenty of time pursuing them in my work. But sometimes I forget to pursue goals within our marriage, our family, and our home. Sometimes I get so caught up with things that I just coast along, figuring that our home life will somehow all fall neatly into place. Yet, I know I need to lend a more active hand in this area and be a better leader.

I sincerely desire a chance to sit down with you and talk about our goals. I would like to hear what you think, what you dream, and where you would like to be, say, ten years from now. We will need to include God in this, so let's also take time to ask Him to lead and direct us.

Because I Love You,
Your Husband.

I wasn't Talking to You

A Kiwi ( New Zealander ) walks into his bedroom with a sheep under his arm and says:
"Darling, this is the pig I have sex with when you have a headache."
His girlfriend is lying in bed and replies: "I think you'll find that's a sheep, you idiot."
The man says: " I think you'll find I wasn't talking to you."

Churchill's Take on Words, Virtues and Modesty

By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach.

Eating words has never given me indigestion.

He has all of the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.

He is a modest little man who has a good deal to be modest about.
- Winston Churchill
