JUST THOUGHTS


1t requires a lot of magnetism to
get things coming our way.
On the other hand. we are also the
architects of our misfortunes.
In an argument some people never
give in and some never give out.
MAXIMS FOR THE NEWl YWEDS
An angry speech never with anger
meet.
If you give and take, no heart will
break.
Bitterness dies before a temper
sweet.
Confession of a fault makes half
amends.
Silence is often the golden key of
happiness.
Trust in Providence, but keep the
kettle boiling.
