An Old Farmers Advice



* Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.



* Keep skunks and 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.



* Forgive your enemies. It messes up their heads.



* Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.



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



* You cannot unsay a cruel word.



* Every path has a few puddles.



* When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.



* The best sermons are lived, not preached.



* Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.



* Don't judge folks by their relatives.



* Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.



* Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.



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



* Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.



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



* Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.



* The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.



* Always drink upstream from the herd.



* Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.



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



* If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.



* Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

Don't wrestle with pigs; you'll get all muddy and the pigs will love it!

Mine was similar, but different meaning! :cool:
