THIS MONTH: HUMOR

and other short thoughts

Sometimes the best quotes are humorous;
sometimes they are just so true or so ironic you just have to laugh

Falling hurts least those who fly low.

Fate chooses our relatives, we choose our friends.
The greatest of all arts is the art of living together.

Everything nourishes what is strong already.

Be yourself. Who else is better qualified?
