Learning to dance in the rain

A co-worker, on seeing how peeved I am with my company today, forwarded me the following. Usually I'm not suckered in easily to these happy-little anecdotes of the day and would rather sit around with a frown, but this one hit me... take a look...


There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.

"Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today"
So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.

"Hmm," she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle today"
So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.

"Well," she said, "today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail.
So she did and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head.

"YEA!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"


Attitude is everything.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.


Live simply.
Love generously.
Care deeply.
Speak kindly.



Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... it's about learning to dance in the rain.

perfectly understand.

I perfectly understand.

whether
why you want to stand up for all
why you want to give up for all

don't matter anymore
that's the way it is, isn't it?

One time in your life you want to stand up for the whole class
One time in your life you want to give in for the future of your life
One time in my life I want to get out of it and hide



I understand you perfectly.

I just can't see why

for heaven's sake,
just once,
stand up for right.
