Cowboys Don’t Cry
Life is not like in the movies. Here in the real world things don’t happen that way. I’m afraid cowboys do cry and heroes do die.Life is not easy; rougher for some than others; but sitting on your butt complaining about the unfairness of life is not going to improve your lot in the least.
Life offers plenty of opportunities. Be on your feet when they present themselves for by the time you have raised onto your feet the opportunity will be gone!
Make the best of your life as it is now. Enjoy what you can and accept that there are things that you will never be and things you will never have.
You were created with two ends. One to think with and one to sit on. Your success depends on which end you use most. It is like spinning a coin.
Heads you win and tails you lose.
Think about it. Today is the first day of the rest of your life.

Think about it. Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
Well
I needed something positive today. No pointt in waiting for others to do it.
Hmm, we cannot all be millionaires and we cannot all be famous.
Today I am going to do a few things!
I agree, not a lot ever happens when you're sitting on your butt.
Pleased to see you on a positive.
You were down yesterday.
Hmm, by the time you're off your butt, the meat is burned.
No I was not down. I merely call things by the name.
i see catfoot drive car up and down driveway. in and out garage. his very daughter cross. not in car with him.
What you do? buy can of wine sunday i teach you driving.
So true.
Wishing you a wonderful day!
Sometimes life has a habit of kicking us over, but getting up and going on is the only choice we really have if we want to have some sort of success.
I cannot overdo. I get a mug of doped Milo or hot chocolate when I get to active.
You are worse than the local press. I'm sure they will have a job for you at the Sunday newspaper. Backpage stuff seems to be your speciality.
Thank you for droppimh in.
Yes, how hard we fall is not important. It is how quickly you can get up that matters.
Who is exaggerating. Driving is still very far off. I was just moving the car forward and backwards on the driveway, but my leg is still very weak and shaky. I did not give much attention to my leg so far; only my hand. A mistake. I did not realise that it was so weak.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
He is similar to the previous days...
I know I know what the idea but it did not suit me...
Today is not suitable.
Hi CAT
Hi all
Who... thank you friend
Yes, guess you're right, but it goes so slow. I wish I could telescope the next month into a week.
If you put it off for tomorrow you have one day less to do what you have to do.
I wish I could have the patience with myself that I have with other people.
That recklessness will still go away. every year that you age will see you a little more subdued. Even if you don't notice it straight away.
It should be a good start - as the first birthday.
let us say ... 9 months ... lol
But... I begin to consider today
Now is always the best time.
Now forever after...
I'm using the wrong end now.
I had to use the other end all day.
I'm tired.
As you say; forever after.
You're having me on. I was under the impression you just sit there all day looking pretty.
Do you know how upset I was when my school teacher made the statement that life was just a slow process of dieing.
Of course, today is another day of my life, but as my friend said "Things are never so bad they can't be made worse"
Yes, viewing it from the other side, that is also true.
