I’d rather die happy than rich.

Hello friend. Your reply to me comes at a time when I really need it. Thank you.

Kindness and compassion = everything.

And that dental floss comes in handy when rings are stuck on fingers!!! BONUS!!! LOL.

Your post made me smile too.:D

Oh and good tip! I was only thinking of dental floss for my teeth.. totally forgot the too tight ring removal use.

You - Kindness and compassion = everything.. that's GOLD! :wavey:
 
Maybe they're just having a bad day.

We can't but everything we want because then we may not have money for things we need.
 
Life is a journey we can't always control.

Go big or go home.

It's better to get there late than to get there dead.

And my mothers favourite every time I complain about getting yet ANOTHER year older: May as well celebrate your Birthday, as it's much better than the alternative :lol-2:
 
“As long as you’re going forward, you’ll get there”.

When I was 16 and newly licensed, my dad would tell me this every day before I left the house. He was specifically talking about the fact that we lived in Northern Minnesota, and the weather was horrible in the winter 99% of the time. He was deathly afraid I would speed and go off the road and die. So he always reminded me that as long as I was going forward, despite the speed, that I would get where ever I needed to be going.

Now I use that motto for life, and think of my dear old dad who drives slower and slower every day <3

Bless, that's so beautiful!!
 
"Treat others the way you want to be treated." is what i always tell my kids.
 
I refuse to die until I'm happy and rich so I don't have to make a choice :bigsmile:
 
Wow. What a great topic. I fully retired at age 40. In my life, I made quite a bit of money. I have safety deposit boxes full of Baird rhodium bars that I paid around $200 to $300 per ozt in the eighties. They just sit there. They are my safety net. Other than that I live very meagerly and I am humbled. So, money never brought me happiness. My days of ascribing to Madison Avenue is long over. I am happy with myself. Not money. Thanks.
 
On dark days.....
Expect least, what you would expect most.
On some days..
For whom the phone tolls, it tolls for thee.
 
Don't count other people's money.
I grew up with people that did that, and they were never satisfied or at peace.

Don't look back. It distracts from the now. (Thank you Edna Mode.)
Regrets are a waste of time and energy.
 
I'd be happy if someone would tell me how to remove a ring with dental floss.
 
I don’t live by it but one of my favorite sayings:

There is a lid for every pot.
 
A wise friend, commenting on avoiding large drama at her workplace, said another now-fave of mine:

"Not my circus. Not my monkeys." :D
