Something worth sharing
 

I received this in an email yesterday and thought it was worth sharing....enjoy....:)



In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday.

Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older. And, there on

television, she said it was "exciting." Regarding body changes, she

said there were many, occurring every day...like her breasts. They

seem to be in a race to see wh ich will reach her waist, first.



The audience laughed so hard they cried. She is such a simple and

honest woman, with so much wisdom in her words!



Maya Angelou said this:

"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today,

life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."



"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she

handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled

Christmas tree lights."



"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents,

you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."



"I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life."



"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."



"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt

on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back."



"I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I

usually make the right decision."



"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."



"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.

People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."



"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."



"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will

forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them

feel."



Please send this to fivephenomenalwomen today. If you do, something

good will happen: You will boost anotherwoman'sself-esteem. If you

don't...the elastic will break and your underpants will fall down

around your ankles! Believe me, I didn't take any chances on "my

elastic breaking!" I sent it to a lot of special women I care for

:thumbup: :thumbup: Thanks for sharing. :)

Thanks for posting that....sometimes it helps to have a reminder to put some things into perspective on what really matters in life.....I'm trying to learn some life lessons also.....


Choosing how to behave regardless of how you feel… and discovering that behaving differently seems to change how you feel. Sometimes by changing yourself you change everything.

I love it :) Thank you so much~

I loved these sayings! I'm going to save them and share with others.

Maya Angelou has a very special way of sharing her wisdom. I love these thoughts
