Thank you for making me smile today!
ReplyDeleteHere's one I've remembered (perhaps not word-for-word, but close, I think) since High School:
"Can anyone remember when times were not hard and money was not scarce?"

It helped frame my lifeview for the next 40-odd years. (Add you know...some of them have been quite odd!)
Have a lovely day :)
Your phrases made me smile :o)))!

Hi. Enjoyed this post!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the smiles! I do have a comeback on the money not buying happiness, though. "Those who say you can't buy happiness have never bought a puppy."
