I love the Irish and Mark Twain too

Enjoying this quiet snowy day...the kids go back to school tomorrow and so I must also return to the craft room to work on some signs.  Have an idea for some Irish blessings

May God give you...
For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.
.


and a Mark Twain sign

Substitute "damn" every time
you're inclined to write "very";
your editor will delete it and
the writing will be just as it should be
Mark Twain


...not sure about Mark Twain yet, but I love that he makes me chuckle.

How about you?  What are some of your favorite quotes, sayings or blessings?
