The Old Retired Guy... : Thought for the day ...

"The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

Hooah

Good advice for all of us ...

Drink water from the source where horses drink. The horse will never drink bad water. Put your bed where the cat is sleeping. Eat the fruit that was touched by a worm. Boldly choose the mushroom on which the insects sit. Plant the tree where the mole digs. Build your house where the snake sit to warm yourself. Dig your well where the birds are hiding in the Heat. Go to sleep and wake up at the same time with the birds - they will harvest all the golden grains of the days. Eat more green - you will have strong legs and a resistant heart, like the nature of the forest. Swim often and you will feel on Earth like the fish in the water. Look at the sky as often as possible and your thoughts will become light and clear. Be calm a lot, talk little - and silence will come into your heart, and your mind will be calm and full of peace.

Want to check out older posts ?

The labels shown below are the keys to going back through all the entries to this blog over the years. I have put all entries in some sort of category so all you have to do is click on one of the headings and all blog entries related to that topic will come up on the screen.

If you get to the bottom of the large section on the left, there will be a button called "older posts" which will take you to the next page of that topic, and so on.

I put this note in here because I had a commenter who came to the bottom of the main page the other day ask if that was all there was.

Feel free to leave comments or check the box(es) if you like the entry.
