Quotes for humor

I can be pretty serious as I write on this blog. What we do as Optimist Club members, or what any service club member does in their community, is important. When the community steps in to provide support so that our government funds can be used more effectively, that's a good thing. When groups of people come together to work towards common goals, that's a good thing. When we learn to be leaders and pass on positive thoughts and progress for the generations that will follow in our paths, that's a good thing.

But sometimes, we have to be reminded of something silly. At least that's what a  friend said to me today when he encouraged me to post a quote from George Carlin on the Experience Optimism blog.  So here's to you - you know who you are - "Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things."

Smiles to all.  Enjoy your day!
