Advice from an Old Mountain Man

Keep skunks, bankers, and lawyers at a distance.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.

Words that soak into your ears are whispered..not yelled.

Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.

Do not corner somethin' that you know is meaner than you.

It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

You cannot unsay a cruel, or unkind word.

Every path has a few puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

The best sermons are lived, NOT preached.

Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't botherin' you none.

Aways drink upstream from the herd.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.

Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.

May I add...one that I firmly believe in?
Its called CRC
It stands for Consideration, Respect, and Courtesy.
These three words should apply to any and all things.
Can you imagine what a better place this world would be if everyone practised CRC?
Sound advice Old Mountain Man!
