    Have a GREAT WEEKEND Primal!
     
    We can change the world with Kindness and Love!

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ON THE POWER OF KINDNESS ...

    "You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of

    this WORLD'S HAPPINESS.

    How?

    By giving A FEW WORDS OF SINCERE APPRECIATION to

    someone who is LONELY or DISCOURAGED.

    Perhaps you will forget tomorrow what KIND WORDS you say

    today, but the recipient may cherish them OVER A LIFETIME."

    ~ Dale Carnegie

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Have a LAUGH TODAY Primal!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS FROM GEORGE CARLIN ...

    “There's no present. There's only the immediate future and the recent past."

    "Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that."

    "When cheese gets it's picture taken, what does it say?"

    "When someone is impatient and says, "I haven't got all day," I always wonder, How can that be? How can you not have all day?"

    "I thought about how mothers feed their babies with tiny little spoons and forks so I wondered, what do Chinese mothers use? Toothpicks?"

    "Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?"

    "If it’s true that our species is alone in the universe, then I’d have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little."

    "Weather forecast for tonight: Dark. Continued dark overnight, with widely scattered light by morning."

    "I put a dollar in a change machine. Nothing changed."

    ~ George Carlin

    Make A Difference Today Primal!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT MAKING A DIFFERENCE ...

    "Any time you have an opportunity to MAKE A DIFFERENCE

    in this world and YOU DON'T, then you are WASTING YOUR

    TIME on Earth.”
     
    ~ Roberto Clemente

    ACT AS IF WHAT YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE ~

    IT DOES!

    LAUGH, LOVE, AND LIVE Primal!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT LAUGHTER ...

    We were BORN TO LAUGH!

    Babies start laughing when they are only 10-12 weeks old.

    HUMOR helps us to think out of the box.

    The AVERAGE CHILD laughs about 400 TIMES per day.

    The AVERAGE ADULT laughs only 15 TIMES per day.

    What happened to the other 385 laughs?

    WE CAN ALL LEARN A LOT FROM A CHILD ABOUT
    HOW TO LAUGH ~ AND HOW TO LIVE!

    REMEMBER TO LAUGH AS MUCH AS YOU BREATHE
    AND LOVE AS LONG AS YOU LIVE!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Merry Christmas Primal!

     

    S.O.M.E. - (So Others Might Eat), feeds and assists the poor and destitute here in the Washington D.C. area

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT PRECIOUS CHRISTMAS GIFTS ...

    "The joy of BRIGHTENING OTHER'S LIVES, BEARING each others' burdens, EASING other's loads and supplanting EMPTY HEARTS AND LIVES with GENEROUS GIFTS becomes for us the MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS."

    ~ W. C. Jones

    IT IS THE PERSONAL THOUGHFULNESS, THE WARM HUMAN AWARENESS, THE REACHING OUT OF THE SELF TO ONE'S FELLOW MAN THAT MAKES GIVING WORTHY OF THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT!
