I thought this was a cute little list my more conservative/religious relatives sent me. It ends with a “God fixes everything #11” which I deleted ‘cuz while I believe in a higher power I believe also that we are the power source of that higher power. Convoluted, I know. Maybe I should start a new category called “religious bullshit” HA!
Anyway… on to the uplifting little list. I added my opinions! Muahaha
Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah’s Ark .
ONE: Don’t miss the boat. (Whichever boat you choose..going PC here)
TWO: Remember that we are all in the same boat! (or at least we’re a fleet of boats all going the same direction… maybe.. wait.. who’s got the map?)
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the Ark. (plan within limits, don’t let it ruin your enjoyment of every day.)
FOUR: Stay fit. When you’re 60 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big. (Yup.. done. OK, doing.. sheesh!)
FIVE: Don’t listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done. (my personal 2011 motto)
SIX: Build your future on high ground. (hmmm.. define “high” 🙂
SEVEN: For safety’s sake, travel in pairs. (at a minimum!! muahaha)
EIGHT: Speed isn’t always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs. (the ability for multi-speeds is always a plus.. wait, when did this degenerate into naughtiness. oh, right.. I’M talking.)
NINE: When you’re stressed, float awhile. (In SoCal we call that meditating, I call it vegging out in front of the t.v.)
TEN: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals. (More than that! I bet it the Titanic was built by committees!)
