Find Good Fortune In Dragon's Wings.



(I don't believe in fortune that came a-calling.)



Do not then stand idly waiting,
For some greater work to do;
Fortune is a lazy goddess,
She will never come to you.

- Ellen M. H. Gates (1834 - 1920)


Even when you beat it to her door,
She may not receive you:
For her suitors are many,
And her favors few.

- Ghostwise

~~~~~~~~~~"

“To attract good fortune, spend a new penny on an old friend, share an old pleasure with a new friend and lift up the heart of a true friend by writing his name on the wings of a dragon.”

- Proverb


Why is fortune as hard to find as dragon's wings?

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

When the going gets tough, I try to remind myself how tough I am.

Life is tough, and if you have the ability to laugh at it you have the ability to enjoy it.

I laugh at Life, Life laughs back.
Who is laughing at whom?

Forget Regret Or Miss Life.



(I tried not to have regrets in the life I live but sometimes I find they are unavoidable.)



“I would much rather have regrets about not doing what people said, than regretting not doing what my heart led me to and wondering what life had been like if I'd just been myself.”

- Brittany Renée


If I regret, let me not regret my actions or my reasons for doing them but just their outcome.

- Ghostwise

~~~~~~~~~~"

“Forget regret, or life is yours to miss.”

- Jonathan Larson



If I must have regrets to live a full life; bring them on, bring them on!

May You Always Have A Roof For The Rain.



(The night before, I caught two refugees hiding on my roof. They were not thieves. They did it for love.)



“May you always have walls for the winds, a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire, laughter to cheer you, those you love near you and all your heart might desire.”

- Irish Blessings


What more does one need?

- Ghostwise

~~~~~~~~~"

“Rain does not fall on one roof alone”

- Proverb


But sometimes we only hear the rain on our roof.
