Inner Peace

Post by Byron »

A very dear friend has given me the gift of Peace and I have copied and pasted here for all to see and learn.....

By following the simple advice I read in an article, I have finally found inner peace........the article read:

"The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you've started."

So I looked around the house to see all the things I started and hadn't finished....and before coming to work this morning I finished off a bottle of red wine, a bottle of white, the Bailey's, Kahlua and Tia Maria, my Prozac, some Valium and a box of chocolates. You have no idea how freakin good I feel....

You may pass this on to those you feel are in need of Inner Peace...

Byron, You're a man after my own Dionysian heart. You've inspired me to look around my own house for things I can finish! Sohbet

Byron, :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :cry:
Ah such wisdom :!: :idea: Too bad most of the "gurus" of the 20th.C were not so 'enlightened'. If I were to finish off all the items hanging about my roost I should need an ambulance with an army of paramedics to cart me away before I could get anywhwere near completion of the task. :oops:
I have a busy day ahead of me but perhaps I could aim for some "peace of mind" this evening. :wink:

Cheers, Reckless Owl.
