Life's Little Lessons

avatar

Our lives might not have come with a manual, or an instruction booklet to tell us what to do, or how to live our lives. But if we are willing to listen to our elders, to learn from the sages, and wise men before us, we will be able to get a pretty good start on life, avoiding all the portholes that are dotted along life’s journey.

Hi Vince,
How are you doing?

This quote I find to be very true. Lately I am stressing about some things, and although they are things which are realistic to stress over, I tend to stress way too much.

It helps to keep in mind that there's never any telling exactly how things will work out, and with that idea, stress becomes less.

I hope you have a great weekend my friend.

Hi Jake,

I am great, thanks!

I like to tell people to do the best they can, and then sit back and wait for the results. Hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst.

Take it easy. Relax and have a great weekend?

Have you move to your new lodgings?

It's great to hear you're doing good Vince.

I'm sure the weekend will be decent enough here, I've not moved yet. Maybe in a couple of weeks. I'm having difficulties reaching my landlord. Stressful indeed.

A margarita would take the edge off. Too bad I can't drink anymore 😂

Thanks for the trendo.

How about, "She had a really expensive couch and great shoes, and I inherited them"? !tip

The couch might be of some use to you, but the shoes are of no use to you, I am afraid. 😊
Thank you for the tip Jon. Have a great weekend. !trdo

Howdy Jonboy. A bit difficult to be giving you a tutorial on creating on Canva here. It is easier that you open their site and follow their steps from there.

Oh I know, I wasn't asking for a tutorial, I just started using it myself this week so I noticed it on your posts and thought it was interesting. Yeah I had to go to youtube to get instructions because I was clueless on their site! Very cool site to have available. Now if we could just find some great quotes to use! lol.

Howdy Jonboy. Just play around on the site until you get used to it. I only know the basics - what I needed. Too lazy to work out the rest. 😊

They should have some good instruction videos on there to demonstrate their features and how to use them.
