HEALTH, SUCCESS AND LOVE

HEALTH, SUCCESS AND LOVE
(author unknown)

"Once in a village, a woman saw three old men sitting outside her house. They were sitting there for quite a while.

The woman went outside and said,

'I don't know you, but I saw that you are sitting here for long, you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat.'

One of them asked,

'Is the man of the house at home ?'

She replied, 'No.'

'Then we cannot come in.', said the men.

The woman went inside. In the evening when her husband came, she told him about the people sitting outside and all that had happened.

He told his wife to go and ask those men to come in and have some food.

She went out and told them,

'My husband is home. He is inviting you all. Please come inside and have some food with us .'

They replied,

'We do not go inside a house together.'

When she asked why, one of the old men explained,

pointing to one of his friends, he said :

'His name is Wealth.

If he goes with you, your home will be filled with wealth always.'

Then pointing to another old man he said :

'He is Success.

If he goes with you, you will always be successful in any endeavour you start.'

He then introduced himself as Love.

'If I go with you, then your home will be filled with love always.'

Then he told her to go in and discuss with her husband which one of them they want in their home.

Her husband was overjoyed hearing about it and said,

'Let’s invite Wealth.

Let him come and fill our home with wealth.'

His wife disagreed and said, 'Why don’t we invite Success?'

Their daughter-in-law was listening to this.

She came to them and suggested,

'Wouldn’t it be better if we invite Love in our home ?

Then our home will be filled with love forever.'

The husband and wife agreed.

The woman again went out and said,

'Which one of you is Love ? Please come in and be our guest.'

Love got up and started walking toward the house. Just then the other two also got up and started following him.

The woman asked,

'You said you can not all can come together.

I invited only Love.

Why are you all coming in?'

The old men replied,

'If you had invited Wealth or Success then the other two would have stayed outside, but since you invite Love, wherever he goes, we go with him.'

Wherever there is Love, Wealth and Success will follow."

CHARLEY THE NEW GREETER

CHARLEY THE NEW GREETER
( author unknown)

Charley, a new retiree-greeter at Wal-Mart, just couldn't seem to get to work on time. Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker, really tidy, clean-shaven, sharp-minded and a real credit to the company and obviously demonstrating their "Older Person Friendly" policies.

One day the boss called him into the office for a talk. "Charley, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang-up job when you finally get here; but your being

late so often is quite bothersome."

"Yes, I know boss, and I am working on it."

"Well good, you are a team player. That's what I like to hear".

"Yes sir, I understand your concern and I will try harder".

Seeming puzzled, the manager went on to comment, "I know you're retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say to you

there if you showed up in the morning late so often?"

The old man looked down at the floor, then smiled. He chuckled quietly, then said with a grin, "They usually saluted and said,

Good morning, Admiral, can I get your coffee, sir"?

COWS DON'T GIVE MILK, YOU HAVE TO WORK FOR IT

COWS DON'T GIVE MILK,

YOU HAVE TO WORK FOR IT
(author unknown)

A father used to say to his children when they were young: —When you all reach the age of 12 I will tell you the secret of life. One day when the oldest turned 12, he anxiously asked his father what was the secret of life. The father replied that he was going to tell him, but that he should not reveal it to his brothers.

—The secret of life is this: The cow does not give milk. "What are you saying?" Asked the boy incredulously. —As you hear it, son: The cow does not give milk, you have to milk it. You have to get up at 4 in the morning, go to the field, walk through the corral full of manure, tie the tail, hobble the legs of the cow, sit on the stool, place the bucket and do the work yourself.

That is the secret of life, the cow does not give milk. You milk her or you don't get milk. There is this generation that thinks that cows GIVE milk. That things are automatic and free: their mentality is that if "I wish, I ask..... I obtain."

"They have been accustomed to get whatever they want the easy way...But no, life is not a matter of wishing, asking and obtaining. The things that one receives are the effort of what one does. Happiness is the result of effort. Lack of effort creates frustration."

So, share with your children from a young age the secret of life, so they don't grow up with the mentality that the government, their parents, or their cute little faces is going to give them everything they need in life.

An Atheist and The Cowboy

An Atheist and The Cowboy

brought to you by THE CORNER 4 WOMEN

An atheist was seated next to a dusty old cowboy on an airplane and he turned to him and said, “Do you want to talk?

Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”

The old cowboy, who had just started to read his book, replied to the total stranger, “What would you want to talk about?”

“Oh, I don’t know,” said the atheist. “How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?” as he smiled smugly.

“Okay,” he said. “Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff – grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?”

The atheist, visibly surprised by the old cowboy's intelligence, thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”

To which the cowboy replies, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don’t know crap?”

IN THE LAND THAT MADE ME, ME

IN THE LAND THAT MADE ME, ME

Brought to you by THE CORNER 4 WOMEN

Long ago and far away, in a land that time forgot,

Before the days of Dylan , or the dawn of Camelot.

There lived a race of innocents, and they were you and me.

For Ike was in the White House in that land where we were born,

Where navels were for oranges, and Peyton Place was porn.

We longed for love and romance, and waited for our Prince,

Eddie Fisher married Liz, and no one's seen him since.

We danced to 'Little Darlin,' and sang to 'Stagger Lee'

And cried for Buddy Holly in the Land That Made Me, Me.

Only girls wore earrings then, and 3 was one too many,

And only boys wore flat-top cuts, except for Jean McKinney.

And only in our wildest dreams did we expect to see

A boy named George with Lipstick, in the Land That Made Me, Me.

We fell for Frankie Avalon, Annette was oh, so nice,

And when they made a movie, they never made it twice..

We didn't have a Star Trek Five, or Psycho Two and Three,

Or Rocky-Rambo Twenty in the Land That Made Me, Me.

Miss Kitty had a heart of gold, and Chester had a limp,

And Reagan was a Democrat whose co-star was a chimp.

We had a Mr. Wizard, but not a Mr. T,

And Oprah couldn't talk yet, in the Land That Made Me, Me.

We had our share of heroes, we never thought they'd go,

At least not Bobby Darin, or Marilyn Monroe.

For youth was still eternal, and life was yet to be,

And Elvis was forever in the Land That Made Me, Me.

We'd never seen the rock band that was Grateful to be Dead,

And Airplanes weren't named Jefferson , and Zeppelins were not Led.

And Beatles lived in gardens then, and Monkees lived in trees,

Madonna was Mary in the Land That Made Me, Me.

We'd never heard of microwaves, or telephones in cars,

And babies might be bottle-fed, but they were not grown in jars.

And pumping iron got wrinkles out, and 'gay' meant fancy-free,

And dorms were never co-Ed in the Land That Made Me, Me.

We hadn't seen enough of jets to talk about the lag,

And microchips were what was left at the bottom of the bag.

And hardware was a box of nails, and bytes came from a flea,

And rocket ships were fiction in the Land That Made Me, Me.

T-Birds came with portholes, and side shows came with freaks,

And bathing suits came big enough to cover both your cheeks.

And Coke came just in bottles, and skirts below the knee,

And Castro came to power near the Land That Made Me, Me.

We had no Crest with Fluoride, we had no Hill Street Blues,

We had no patterned pantyhose or Lipton herbal tea

Or prime-time ads for those dysfunctions in the Land That Made Me, Me.

There were no golden arches, no Perrier to chill,

And fish were not called Wanda, and cats were not called Bill

And middle-aged was 35 and old was forty-three,

And ancient were our parents in the Land That Made Me, Me.

But all things have a season, or so we've heard them say,

And now instead of Maybelline we swear by Retin-A.

They send us invitations to join AARP,

We've come a long way, baby, from the Land That Made Me, Me.

So now we face a brave new world in slightly larger jeans,

And wonder why they're using smaller print in magazines.

And we tell our children's children of the way it used to be,

Long ago and far away in the Land That Made Me, Me.

If you didn't grow up in the fifty's,

You missed the greatest time in history,

Hope you enjoyed this read as much as I did.

Are You A WAHMy Mammy? If Not, Why Not?

Are You A WAHMy Mammy? If Not, Why Not?

Ok! Ok ! I hear you saying so what’s a WAHMy? Well to put it simply its an acronym for Work At Home Moms ya’ll. I added the ya’ll to make this more unique.

A little girl came home from school and asked her mother “Are you A WAHMy Mammy?” a bit perplexed and quite bemused, that her precious daughter of six had come out with such a profound statement. “All the other kid’s mom’s at school in my group are WAHMy’s, so are you one mum?” the little girl continued.

“I’m not sure my dear, what’s a WAHMy anyway?” the mother replied.

With hands on her hips and the right foot tapping, as little girls often do, and a small scowl on her young brow, “Moth-errr!” “It’s being a Work At Home Mommy ya’ll of course. Derrr!” and the usual, under the breath “tut”

“Oh right, no my dear in that case I’m not.” Tears welled in her eyes as the young mother’s thoughts drifted to happier times, when they enjoyed the income from her husband’s job, and as a family they could afford everything they needed. Bob her husband was out of state looking for work, and the welfare cheque was barely enough to survive on.

“So my little one, come sit on my knee, and tell mommy all about being a WAHMy, seeing as how you seem to know so much for one so young”

“Ok but Moth-errr, please NO sloppy kisses, I’m growd up now and past all that mushy stuff” The little girl proudly told her mom all about the other children’s mom’s, working from home doing lots of different jobs, and how the other kids mom’s could afford those special treats like they once did, and daddy could come back home again and they’ll all live happily ever after.

Yes little six year olds can certainly come out with the most thought provoking and in depth things at times, as their young minds can be very logical, and not marred by years of preconception’s of what can be achieved and what can’t. There’s an old adage, “Out of the mouth’s of babes” pure thought with no hindrances immerge. The little girl knew nothing of the actual nuances or complexities of working from home for her mother, yet her logic told her this would be ideal, and besides her father could come back again, which in her eyes would be so wonderful as she misses him so very much.

WHY BE A WAHMy?

WAHMy mammy’s choose not to take paid work outside the home, so that their family can be their first priority. Whether you are a single parent or within a partnership, trying so desperately to make ends meet, you could so easily become a WAHMy mammy by utilizing better, the skill’s you already have. Find out how You too can take control of your own finances in such a way as you discover how being a WAHM can provide the flexibility, income generation and personal fulfilment you are seeking, by working from home and releasing your full potential. You owe it to your family to be successful, what better motivation can there be to becoming a WAHMy mammy. The story highlighted above is actually fictional, written by me to illustrate this article, but it could easily be true, it could easily be about you and your own family situation.

WHAT’S THE CATCH?

Now I hear you asking, “Ye right, Ok! So where, how, what’s the catch?..” and my answer in a nutshell, there is no catch, no trick questions, in fact anyone can become a WAHMy or even a WAHDy yes you guessed it a Work At Home Daddy.

Everyone has a skill, even something quite basic can be utilized and transformed into a work from home business either locally or globally, it really makes no difference. Selling products from Amazon as an Affiliate for example, you don’t need to bother about carrying or buying and stock, or even worry about shipping. You can build a reasonable mini website free with Google Sites which you can use for any online business.

Don’t think that working from home is going to be a fast, get rich solution to your financial problems, because basically it isn’t, however it is a perfect way to make a little extra each month as a side hustle, just by setting a few hours aside each day to ensure everything is running smoothly.

Of course, you are not limited to just being an Amazon Affiliate. You could easily sell your skills locally too say for Ironing, dog walking, car washing, writing CV’s etc etc

Is today the day you are going to become a WAHMy or a WAHDy?

What is an Agony Uncle or Aunt and why should anyone need one

Today I sat and pondered on a very fundamental question, of what exactly is an Agony Uncle or Aunt, and why should anyone really need one. Well I can say this with some degree of certainty; he or she, is not some great sage with infinite powers of wisdom, oh no my friends, far from it..

King Solomon was portrayed in the Bible stories as a great wise leader, but in many ways he too was an ancient Agony Uncle, who's people came to him with their daily problems, troubles and woes. Although very wise and very astute King Solomon was after all only human, and, as it is only human to err, then he too could never answer all that was put before him.

The terms Agony Aunt and Uncle was only ever used within modern media. Magazines and newspapers, originally on an advertisement rich page of readers looking for missing relatives or friends they'd lost contact with, and later developed to become anyone who encouraged their readership to submit problems for them to solve, or at least give an unbiased opinion on, then publish the question and answers within the following publication. Initially called simply Problem Pages, then Agony Columns. Later to become identified with individual columnists who became associated with the actual pages on a regular basis. Many of these journalists became quite famous in this field, and moved into the many new media being developed from radio and television to the Internet and other Live Broadcasting Streams

A DICTIONARY DEFINITION

"Agony Aunt noun, 1970's a problem-solving usually a woman, columnist of newspapers and magazines to whom the lovelorn and generally often depressed can write; their letters will be answered in print or privately; thus the male equivalent, Agony Uncle. The first Oxford English Dictionary citation is in a 1975 edition, but it refers, to a biographical prototype of Evelyn Home, and to the "agony aunties" of the '1930's' and was associated with WWII and broadcast over the BBC World Services; note the actual term AGONY COLUMN noun, from which the names have derived, dates from the 1950's as quoted in a version of Cassell's Dictionary of Slang in 1998 by Jonathon Green"

IN TODAY'S SOCIETY

In today's society, a modern Agony Uncle or Aunt, does not sit in any form of judgement; after all they are really trying to befriend the advice seeker. Some only do this in a professional manor and will not correspond on a personal level preferring to answer all within their article pages. Others offer genuine advice and assistance and really care for their advice seekers in every way, often becoming very good friends, just like a real Aunt or Uncle would. Whichever type of Agony Uncle or Aunt you yourself prefer to associate with is entirely your choice. Good codes of conduct and discretion are of course essential; after all, you don't want your personal information, like your full identity of name, address and e-mail broadcast halfway around the world on the whim of some unscrupulous editor just to hopefully attract a larger proportion of the available readership. With the internet now playing a large roll in everyone's lives then more and more websites have been instrumental in offering the services of an Agony Uncle or Aunt for their visitors, as a valued addition to an already good website.

WHO NEEDS AN AGONY AUNT OR UNCLE ANYWAY?

The simple answer to this is we may all find a need for an Agony Uncle or Aunt from time to time throughout our lives. No one is an island, and often it's those simple things that just get on top of us and get us down. Needing a sympathetic ear to listen or the shoulder to cry on was and still is the roll of our closest friends, a partner or relative. All too often however these problems arise, and we simply cannot confide with any degree of confidence in the people who surround us everyday, we need that input from an impartial stranger, an outsider looking in on our situation. Sometimes too there is no one there to confide in, in our lives. The growing trend of singles to be isolated from friends and family is quite alarming, and the popularity of messaging services and chat rooms within the internet community infrastructure, plus the advent of personal blogs have also brought about the need and rise of Agony Uncles And Aunts the world over. Many are finding the need to confide of past experiences that have haunted them for years, this bearing of their inner fears acts as a release, a catalyst setting them free from innermost chains that have burdened them. Agony persons fill these gaps perfectly with their own distance from the reality of it all, is a testament to their ever-growing popularity. An online Agony Uncle or Aunt can be that friend you so desperately need to confide in, and in doing so you may also help others.

HOW DOES MY CONFIDING HELP OTHERS?

Strange as this may sound, every-time an Agony Aunt or Uncle answers someone's problem publicly in whatever media, it may also help someone else. Our own problems may seem quite unique, and very personal to ourselves. However your own problem is actually the same as many others the world over, lots of individuals or couples going through identical forms of crisis situations with exactly the same problem, arising from almost identical backgrounds but in differing cultures. By highlighting your issues, others, who have not plucked up the courage to contact an Agony Aunt or Uncle? Are able to read about it, and resolve their own problems, after seeing the similarities of the questions asked. One question to an Agony Aunt or Uncle may help many thousands of others in its eventual publication and circulation. This helping of others is the very essence of why they have captivated audiences the world over, with international celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey and her Shows, who after all is a well known media star and Agony Aunt in her own right

IN CONCLUSION

If you have a problem, and are in need of impartial advice, whether for publication or as a private contact, seek out your own personal Agony Aunt or Uncle, many are well educated and have graduated from the University of Life and Hard Knocks themselves, but all are very loving and caring individuals who enjoy helping others.

FOOTNOTE

Many years ago now in 2006 to be precise, when I first owned The Corner 4 Women website, I was the resident Agony Uncle named “Oaky Wood” I motivated and empowered many individuals, both men and women to come to terms with their own perceived problems, and with their consent, they were published after extensive editing…Recently I was asked if “Oaky Wood” could be resurrected for our current website today together with information on help and crisis centres for abuse throughout the world…Let me know your valued thoughts in the comments below

A-BABYS-THOUGHTS---by John A Elliott 2023

I didn’t ask to be born or bred,
I came into this world, wrinkled,
Bald, and no teeth in my head.
Innocent, not able to speak,
Frail and infirm,
Needing help and all weak.
Warm days of comfort
Inside mother’s womb
Gone in an instant as I entered the room
Crying, that’s me, and kicking a lot
I got my first smack
Before reaching my cot
I had intended, on being SO, so good
Then that nurse beat me
I was in such a mood
She made my bum smart, and glow, crimson red
I think I’ll just grow up
And be bad instead.
