"A merry heart doeth good like a medicine... (Proverbs 17:22)."
"A Feminist Fairy Tale!"
Once upon a time,
In a land far away,
A beautiful independent
Self-assured princess
Saw a frog as she sat
Contemplating ecological issues
On the shores of an unpolluted pond
In a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess's lap
And said: Elegant Lady,
I was once a handsome prince,
Until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.
One kiss from you, however,
And I will turn back
Into a dapper, young prince that I am
And then, my sweet, we can marry
And setup housekeeping in your castle
With my mother,
Where you can prepare my meals,
Clean my clothes, bear my children
And forever feel grateful and happy
Doing so.
That night,
On a repast of lightly sauteed frogs' legs
Seasoned in a white wine
And onion cream sauce,
She chuckled to herself and thought:
I don't think so!

ASAP
Ever wonder about the abbreviation ASAP? Generally we think of it
in terms of even more hurry and stress in our lives.
Maybe if we
think of this abbreviation in a different manner, we will begin to
find a
new way to deal with those rough days along the way.
"There's work to do, deadlines to meet;
You've got no time to spare,
But as you hurry and scurry
ASAP - Always Say A Prayer
In the midst of family chaos,
"Quality time" is rare.
Do your best; let God do the rest
ASAP - Always Say A Prayer
It may seem like your worries
Are more than you can bear.
Slow down and take a breather
ASAP - Always Say A Prayer
God knows how stressful life is;
He wants to ease our cares,
And He'll respond to all your needs
ASAP - Always Say A Prayer.
