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.

Hi
my friend. Glad to see you.

To sigh when inside everything perishes,
And having overcome fears to take a firm step.
I believe that the sun will warm the plain,
Also doesn't remain from cold of a trace.

As soul.
Having found love, will begin to see clearly
Having believed in force, new day
The cowboy doesn't cry never.

Hi Fot,

I think we were not referring to the same comments at the earlier on. I’ll try to clarify.


I said:

Because you said:
Teacher fool if he says such children.


Because I said:
Do you know how upset I was when my school teacher made the statement that life was just a slow process of dieing.
Because he is a cowboy!teddybear teddybear teddybear
