Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...
The Paradoxical Commandments
People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!Last edited by abcowboy; February 12, 2018, 08:30 AM.Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...
[MENTION=20895]Orimus[/MENTION], your post this morning reminded me of something very similar I had read and even posted here on MWO many years ago on one of the monthly threads. It was by Mother Teresa. The similarity was so striking that I had to google it and see where the true authorship originated. Here is what I found:
Mother Teresa: " Do It Anyway" (The Prayer Foundation).
Yours was the true original, but interesting that it is often attributed to Mother Teresa and the link explains why.
Excellent thoughts to live by!Dill
Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!
If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...
22 degrees here in N.Y., cloudy but quiet. I stood out on the back porch this morning for a few minutes, and could hear the creek down below churning away. That, coupled with an owl calling in the distance made for a sweet start to my day. Another 24 please so that I can enjoy moments like these for many years to come. Sometimes you have to look hard for the good things in life, some days it just falls in your lap as it did for me today. Simple things....... Hope that everyone has a great day!

The quote yesterday reminded me of another old saying [MENTION=20895]Orimus[/MENTION], dare to be different, and there's nothing wrong with being different!
When I was at the farm yesterday, I had to go into one of my old sheds that I hardly ever go into. As soon as I opened it, there sat a 24 pack of Budweiser empty cans! Over 3 years and I'm still being reminded that I had a problem. Wonder what Bubba's going to think when she see's it with all the other recyclables lol.Last edited by abcowboy; February 13, 2018, 08:18 AM.Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking.
