Eyes and Cats.

Hello Everyone ~~ Well somehow ? my brother managed to spread the news

of my birthday tomorrow. So I would like to thank all those who sent Birthday

wishes. My son John is taking me out tomorrow night for a meal and then on Friday

my other son Geoff and his wife Joanne are coming for an overnight visit.

So it all looks happy to me.

Eyes That Can See.

<><><><><>

No matter what moment, nor even the place

Beauty is evident, in everyone’s face.

<><><><>

Goodness is seen, through eyes that can see

A reason for bad times, and why they must be.

<><><><>

In apite of how harsh or painful the scene

If you look real hard, some beauty is seen.

<><><><>

Negative days, and troublesome woes

Have positive aspects, as everyone knows.

<><><><>

To focus our minds, to search for the good

Amid the destruction, the misunderstood.

<><><><>

We all have the power, to make our life bright

To fly with the eagles, to light up the night.

<><><><>

Though pain and despair lurks in our life

You must not allow it to turn into strife.

<><><><>

Open your door, to only the view

That makes your heart happy, keeps your hopes new.

<><><><>

This is my secret, that I want to share

With all that I meet, for those whom I care.

An American guy goes to Europe on a six month vacation.

After a couple of weeks, he phones his brother in the

States for a chat.

In the course of the conversation, the guy in Europe says

“How’s my cat?”

His brother in the States says: “Your cat is dead.”

The guy in Europe says: “Listen, when you have bad news,

you don’t just blurt it out like that.”

“You wrap it up so as to break the news gently.

Like this ~~~ When I say ‘How’s my cat’ you say, “Well,

she’s on the roof, see, chasing squirrels. However she

got stuck up there and we called the fire brigade.

The brigade send a unit round and then the fireman goes up the ladder

and is carrying her down when she panics and scratches him, and he lets her fall.

She lands on the pavement and is badly injured.

We rush her to the vet, who operates on her, but unfortunately he can’t save her

and your cat passes away.

“That’s how you break bad news.”

The brother in the States says: “ OK, I understand.”

Then the guy in Europe says, “By the way, how’s Mum?”

His brother in the States says, “Well, she’s on the

roof, see……….
