A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may heal and bless.

"If you judge people you have no time to love them". Mother Teresa

"You are as fit as a fart"
"Like a fart up a curtain pole"
"A farting horse never tires"

All courtesy of my 90 year old Grandma! I'm sure she has others - but she has been saying these ones for as long as I can remember and they have stuck in my head. That could be due to her not ever swearing, so the word "fart" was truely shocking to a small child - and worthy of quite a few giggles!

She also used to say "sugar honey iced tea" when things were pretty bad, but in her old age has progressed to just plain old "sh**t" now. 

And an old cowboy saying - not too sure where it came from, "Don't squat with your spurs on". And yes...I have learned the hard way to take heed of that one, didn't realise my spurs were so sharp!!!

One from my Mum... "Don't squat in spinifex country" we use that one a lot when we are out camping in the spinifex!

I LOL'd reading your little stories Nikkit, love them

Me too Amy... She epitomizes love and selflessness x
Her life was about giving, not judging and helping others x

She is an inspiration! I think it should be compulsory in schools for children to learn about Mother Teresa and everything she did for other people. She was truly the best of the human race

"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples."

"Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love"

"Its not how much we give but how much love we put into giving"

"I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things"
