Just for Giggles 😂

I had a terrible accident yesterday, but I am doing better now. I decided yesterday to go horseback riding which I haven't done in years. Well, I got on the horse and started out slow, and then we went a little faster and then we were going as fast as the horse could go.

Well, I got on the horse and started out slow, and then we went a little faster and then we were going as fast as the horse could go. All of a sudden, I fell off and caught my foot in the stirrup and the horse was dragging me around in a circle. If it was not for the quick thinking of the man I owe my life to, I probably would not have made it .... Thank goodness for the store manager at Kmart who came out and unplugged the machine...😂😂😂

WOMAN. . . . . . . . .

When God created woman he was working late on the 6th day.......

An angel came by and asked." Why spend so much time on her?"

The lord answered. "Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her?"

She must function on all kinds of situations,
She must be able to embrace several kids at the same time,
Have a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart,
She must do all this with only two hands,"
She cures herself when sick and can work 18 hours a day"

THE ANGEL was impressed" Just two hands.....impossible!

And this is the standard model?"

The Angel came closer and touched the woman"
"But you have made her so soft, Lord".
"She is soft", said the Lord,
"But I have made her strong. You can't imagine what she can endure and overcome"

"Can she think?" The Angel asked...
The Lord answered. "Not only can she think, she can reason and negotiate"

The Angel touched her cheeks....
"Lord, it seems this creation is leaking! You have put too many burdens on her"
"She is not leaking...it is a tear" The Lord corrected the Angel…

"What's it for?" Asked the Angel..... .
The Lord said. "Tears are her way of expressing her grief, her doubts, her love, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride."...

This made a big impression on the Angel,
"Lord, you are a genius. You thought of everything.
A woman is indeed marvellous"

Lord said."Indeed she is.
She has strength that amazes a man.
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and opinions.
She smiles when she feels like screaming.
She sings when she feels like crying, cries when happy and laughs when afraid.
She fights for what she believes in.

Her love is unconditional.
Her heart is broken when a next-of-kin or a friend dies but she finds strength to get on with life"

The Angel asked: So she is a perfect being?
The lord replied: No. She has just one drawback
"She often forgets what she is worth".👼👼👼

I'm very ugly So don't try to convince me that I am a very beautiful person Because at the end of the day I hate myself in every single way And I'm not going to lie to myself by saying There is beauty inside of me that matters So rest assured I will remind myself That I am a … View moreI'm very ugly So don't try to convince me that I am a very beautiful person Because at the end of the day I hate myself in every single way And I'm not going to lie to myself by saying There is beauty inside of me that matters So rest assured I will remind myself That I am a worthless, terrible person And nothing you say will make me believe I still deserve love Because no matter what I am not good enough to be loved And I am in no position to believe that Beauty does exist within me Because whenever I look in the mirror I always think Am I as ugly as people say?

Move On!!!

Eventually we'll forget the past, the reason we cried & who caused us pain. We will finally move on & the memories will slowly start to fade.

We will finally move on & the memories will slowly start to fade. It's time to move on & forget about those who forgot about us. We will realize that if they still wanted to be with us, they'd still be here but deep down we know the truth. they won't come back, they've moved on with their life. We can't spend the rest of our life dwelling on the past & what could've been, it's time to Move On ☺☺☺☺

No magic switch

Trevor from Havelock North

Why is it that a lot of people think there is a switch that will turn off the virus when we go into lockdown 2? They seem to think that as soon as the rules are relaxed that they can't catch it and can start socialising again.

Sorry, the risk is exactly the same as it was the day before. … View more
Why is it that a lot of people think there is a switch that will turn off the virus when we go into lockdown 2? They seem to think that as soon as the rules are relaxed that they can't catch it and can start socialising again.

Sorry, the risk is exactly the same as it was the day before. THERE IS NO "ON/OFF" SWITCH.

I urge you all to stay within the rules, keep your distance, and keep washing your hands. If this gets away again we will be living in a third world economy, our way of life will likely never return. Not in our lifetimes anyway.

She struggled to climb stairs, she got breathless quickly and even a simple task like putting her shoes on was a huge struggle for her. She suffered many sleepless nights while you kicked and squirmed inside of her and while you demanded that she scoffed junk at 3.a.m., she then went through EXCRUCIATING PAIN to bring you into this World. She became your Nurse, your Chef, your Maid, your Chauffeur, your Biggest Fan, your Teacher, your Agony Aunt and your Best Friend. She's Struggled for you, cried over you, fought for you, put herself second for you, hoped the best for you and has driven herself insane with worry for you but never has she asked for anything in Return because she Loves You and did it all on Love Alone! Most of us take our Mums for Granted but there are People who have Lost or have never even seen theirs. If you have a Loving Mother who did all of this for you, you are very lucky, never Devalue her Worth because Oneday, you'll wish you Hadn't 🌹🌹🌹🌹
