My Mamma Always Told Me...
myself | 6/2/05 | peacebaby

Posted on 06/02/2005 6:23:59 PM PDT by peacebaby

Forrest Gump's mother told him: "Life is like a box of chocolates... ." My own mother told me: "Honey child, there's a thin line between love and hate." What words of wisdom did your mother or loved one impress upon you? Anyone?

She told me to never make the stupid mistake. Honest mistakes will happen, just beware of the stupid ones.

My mother always told me, regarding men,
"why buy the cow, when they can get the milk for free"
Now that Im older and wiser, My response to her is
"Why buy an entire pig....just to get a little sausage".
;o)
