Adages Gone Wild!

My comfort zone for eight years!

Warning, today's post has nothing to do with anything except what is rolling around in my head!

I don't encourage change .  "They" say change is good, compared to what?  Am I adaptable? Check! Am I patient? Check! Do I want to be adaptable and patient, absolutely not!  Here is another one, "Think outside of the box".  How can you think outside of the box if you have never been in it?  What about this one, "What goes around, comes around".  Really? --- never looked back long enough to see if that happened, don't really care if it did.

"Cast your bread upon the waters" - - that was a pond of happy ducks.

The adage I do respect  (I doubt if it is ancient) - - -People do what they want to do --- meaning I have no control, never had it.  The only thing I have control of is myself, and how I react to circumstances, the test of character -- Thank God the front door is locked and no one can witness my temper tantrums!

If no man is an island, why does he usually drown before he reaches the mainland?

Que sera, sera, --and it usually sucks!

If life gives you lemons - make lemonade - - Would rather make wine out of sour grapes!


Dancing to the beat of another drum - - I am a certified drum and bugle corps!

Keep your friends close, your enemies closer ----- That will make your day!

Throw me in the briar patch, I am good friends with the Tar Baby!

Which adages, proverbs, old sayings, etc. would you like to rewrite ?

Time to make a hershey bar run!
