A new Day - Don't Be Stupid

By
Managing Real Estate Broker

A New Day to be Happy

- To Be Glad - To Rejoice - And To Listen To The News About Horrible Sandy On Her Way To Destroy Us All -

"Happiness depends upon ourselves" Aristotle

So my advice to everyone in Sandy's path or out of Sandy's path is to listen to the advise of Governor Chris Christi, "You know we're expecting a hurricane, it may come it may not... just don't be stupid.... you know what to do so just do it!"  You gotta love Chris Christi

Then listen to the advice of Elbert Hubbard: "Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit."

Stay calm, don't be stupid, and you may want to listen to another great man Stephen Hawking: "Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change."

I close this post with this thought - I always write, talk and think about how our words and our thoughts create our reality - Now I am wondering what happens when the whole country is thinking about all the destruction this awful Sandy is going to bring upon us - I'm thinking that's a lot of power we're giving this little gal - And now I'm thinking - "You of little faith, why are you so afraid" Matthew 8:26

Have a Happy Day and know that "This too shall pass"  and last but not least don't be Stupid!

Richard & Beth- oh how I love this.  Governor Christi's comment reminds me of what Lt General Russel Honore told a reporter after Hurricane Katrina "Don't get stuck on stupid."

Richard and Beth:

You are so right about Chris Christie.  When he said those words, I thought about the people who did not listen to him.
