A Persian Proverb
He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not is a fool; shun him.
He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is a child; teach him.
He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep; wake him.
He who knows, and knows he knows is wise; follow him.

The secret of staying young, is to live honestly, eat slowly and lie about your age.
You are not responsible for all the things that happen to you, but you are responsible for what you do when they happen.
Be not concerned nor be surprised if what you do is criticized, there are always folks who usually can find some fault with every plan. That mistakes are made, we can't deny, but they are only made by folks who try!

Your duties today are not done unless you have given of yourself. A kind word, a cup of coffee for someone, an act of kindness in this dark world, a word of encouragement helping another in need or just a smile for someone who looks as if they need it. Okay, back to the program of normal life.

Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; when he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive.
The foolishness of a man twists his way.
Give what you've got before it is gone.

Your attitude is an inward feeling expressed by outward behavior. It can be seen by all without saying a word. Stop and look at that statement and look how it affects others. From the book "Sargent to CEO" by Sean Jensen. A very good read by the way.

Stupid should hurt!!!! But then the noise from them would be deafening.
Your character shines through as to how you treat your dog. How your dog treats you is what his character is. One and the same should they both be. But no way can you come close as to how much he loves you. You fail in comparison but you must try each day to live up to his ways. God is dog spelled backwards with unconditional love as the same. Maybe we should pay more attention For our dog is smarter than us.
