BEFORE....

Posted on Dec 11th, 2008 by mimi : MOONCHILD mimi
I was cleaning out old e-mails and found this.

"Before you speak, listen.
Before you write, think.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you invest, investigate.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try.
Before you retire, save.
Before you die, give."

-- William A. Ward {American Anthropologist

Mimi, methinks we can add to  this excellent advice, for online groups….
e.g. Before you Send..Re-think…
or Before you Post, Edit.
Ready to play?

Hey Meenakshi, what a great idea,
So many times, I have stopped myself from posting something, especially snarky comments (that was in my previous life —–I hope)

The new one that came to mind immediately was,
BEFORE you marry (again?), think twice

Ok, I know I am going to catch flak from all the happily married people here …..(heehee! ) but I am not editing it, even though……whoohoo
