Wow… Isn’t this so true? I guess we all could learn so much from this simple poem…

And yet we can’t figure out how not to run around trying to belittle/control/kill each other…

A wise poem…

SLOW DANCE

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?

When you ask, “How are you?”
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You’d better slow down
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Ever told your child,
We’ll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,”Hi”

You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift….
Thrown away.
 
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

Woot Deal of the Day…

Posted in 2373922, Woot with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on October 27, 2007 by dalejr410

Today they’ve got a pretty decent deal on an MTX Audio HTB1-S Home Theater Speaker System for $149.99 + $5 shipping.  The cheapest Google Product Search I could find had the same thing for about $185.  That’s an easy $35 savings if anyone is interested in a home theater system. 

If you haven’t seen Woot before they offer one really good deal each day.  A couple of days ago they had a Microsoft Zune (mp3 player) for $99.99 + $5 shipping which wasn’t bad.  But yeah you can find some pretty sweet deals on there.

Trunk or Treat…

Posted in Fun, Holiday, Random with tags , , , , , , , , on October 25, 2007 by dalejr410

Consider Trunk or Treating This Year! 

Nothing can beat the benefits!  Lets see.. its safe, less walking, more interesting, and you can usually find trunk or treats at a church or mall near you.  Personally, I would recommend a church.  The people are more trustworthy and friendly.  Oh yeah and you don’t have to deal with pets or pet droppings… or ditches.  I guess not everybody has a problem with those though. 

Anyway if you can’t find one in your area, try the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  I know that most of the wards in my area do it and chances are that yours do, too.  We don’t require membership or anything to participate, and you surely will have a great bunch of fun with a great group of people.

Latest Stumble…

Coffee

That’s the best place for coffee–on the ground. After all, it is against the Word of Wisdom. I would guess that 89.5% of you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about. As for the 11.5% that do… have you done your home teaching???

Yet another blogger…

Posted in Random with tags , , , , on October 25, 2007 by dalejr410

I know what you’re thinking, “Oh geez its another blogger.” The question is–how many can there possibly be? That, my friend, would not have an answer. I suppose as many people in the world who have access to the internet, the capability of typing a sentence and social need to fulfill that cannot be satisfied in the “real world.” So yeah when are you going to start one? Haha.

Anyway I’m not sure what direction this blog will take… Should it be something that I do on an anonymous basis or perhaps just picture for the “world to see”… even people who know me. Wow that could be embarassing. But anyway we’ll see I guess…
