FOR MY FRIENDS
A FEW WORDS TO LIVE BY
   
An Irish wish from the heart of a friend--
" May good fortune be yours, May your joys never end"
I am of the opinion that my life
          belongs to the community, and as long as
          I live, it is my privilege to do for it
          whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly
          used up when I die, for the harder I
          work, the more I live. Life is no 'brief
          candle" to me. It is a sort of splendid
          torch which I have got hold of for a
          moment, and I want to make it burn as
          brightly as possible before handing it
          on to future generations"
                                            George Bernard Shaw
 
Always give to the community
more than you take.
Someday you may need
more than they can give.

Marriage: When two people are under the influence
of the most violent, most insane, most delusive,
and most transient of passions, they are required to
swear that they will remain in that excited,
abnormal, and exhausting condition
continuously until death do them part.
-- George Bernard Shaw


Good  food to eat on my plate,
Good wine to drink with my
lifes soulmate.
A home all warm and full of love,
Gods small wonders from above.
All this whenever  it ends
whould have no value
without you dear friends.
