Answer 14

I got this newest motto from a friend who emailed it today. It is funny and crazy that I have to share it with others.

"'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, 'WOO HOO, What a Ride!'"

Ok I got that out. Now for the mundane ones I generally obey in life

From my parents/grandparents/ ancestors teachings

-Tread softly and dont bother the sleeping dogs.

-Pick up after yourself and dont leave rubbish

- Always give thanks for yours and your family's blessings.

- Whatsoever you do to the least of your brother- you do unto me

- Take care of Mother Nature because she took care of us in the beginning and will continue till the end of time.

- Look after one another, look after the animals in your care, and the plants and trees and the waters as well

- Do unto others.... (you know the rest)
