This is wonderful and the thought at the end is so true!
Never look down on anybody, unless you're helping them up.
Please read the following quietly then send it back on its journey:
Time waits for no one. Treasure every moment you have.
You will treasure it even more when you can share it with someone special.
Remember ... Hold on tight to the ones you love !

Holding your water - email from Dr. JKS. Weerasekara.
On a cruise ship an old lady goes to the bar. And orders a Scotch with just two drops of water!
Surprised, but the bartender makes her drink just so….
She explains 'I'm on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday and it's today.'
The bartender offers 'Well, since it's your birthday, I'll buy you the next drink. This one is on me.'
As the woman finishes the drink The woman to her right says 'I would like to buy you a drink, too.'
The old woman says 'Thank you. Bartender, I want a Scotch with two drops of water.' 'Coming up' says the bartender
As she finishes that drink, The man to her left says 'I would like to buy you one, too.' The old woman says 'Thank you. Bartender, I want another Scotch with two drops of water.' 'Coming right up' the bartender says.
As he gives her the fourth drink, he asks 'Ma'am, I'm dying of curiosity. Why the Scotch with only two drops of water?'
The old woman replies 'Sonny, when you're my age, You've learned how to hold your liquor...
Holding your water, however, is a whole other issue.'

New Age Daughter-in-law - email from Dr.JKS.Weerasekara.
Some daughters-in-law are well trained and well mannered....
They don't come to change the family, they are here to ... ( READ ON !)
The new wife was being welcomed at the husband's home in a traditional
manner. As expected she gave a speech;
'My dear family members, I thank you for welcoming me in my new home
and family. Firstly, my being here does not mean that I want to change
your way of life, your routine ..'No, I will never do that, never in a
million years.'
'What do you mean my child?' asked the father-in-law.
'What I mean dad is (looking at her in-laws);
Those who used to wash the dishes must carry on washing them.
Those who used to do the laundry must carry on doing it.
Those who cooked should not stop at my account, AND
Those who used to clean should continue cleaning!!!
'And what are you here for?' enquired the mother-in-law.
' I'M HERE TO ENTERTAIN YOUR SON!!!'

A Sydney policeman' woes.
A policeman in Sydney, Australia pulled over a driver who had been weaving in and out of the traffic.
He approached the car window and said "Sir I need you to blow into this breathalyzer". The man reaches into his pocket and produces a doctor's note. On it was written: "This man suffers from chronic asthma. Do not make him perform any action that may leave him short of breath". The policeman said "Okay then I need you to come and give a blood sample" The man produced another letter. This one said: "This man is a haemophiliac. Please do not cause him to bleed in any way". So the officer said: "Right, I need a urine sample then". The man produces a third letter from his pocket. It read: "This man plays Cricket for England, please don't take the piss out of him" |
