Food for Thought
Taking my courage into my hands once more, I include these politically incorrect thoughts at great risk of feeding some people's ongoing vendetta against Irish Catholics. As some say, "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose. Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free."

An Inspiration for Living!
People are unreasonable,
illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may
accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful,
you will win some false friends,
and some true enemies;
Be successful anyway.
What you spend years building,
someone could destroy overnight.
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
others may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between
you and God. It was never
between you and them anyway.
