Of Cats and People
(By Michael Newnham)
Lord, this cat you gave me... she just doesn't listen.
-I told her the rains were coming...she goes out anyway
and comes back soaked.
-I told her not to lay in weeds...yet everyday she comes
in and expects me to pull all the stickers out of her fur
....from laying in the weeds.
-I told her that as much as it's up to her to be at peace
with all cats...yet she expects me to tend to her wounds
from the fights she is always in.
-She embarrasses me in front of the neighbors by instigating
disputes with their cats...she thinks she owns the whole block.
-She is constantly doing what she ought not to do and suffering
the consequences.
-Worse, she seems to blame all her misfortunes on me...at least
she expects me to deal with all the results of her disobedience.
I always do, but she never seems to learn.
-Furthermore, Lord...she has never missed a meal, but when she's
hungry she yowls as if she hasn't had a meal in weeks.
She makes it sound as if I'm a negligent and cruel father.
The truth is that I always feed her and even give her treats.
Just wanted you to know...
-To top it all off, she is often distant and ignores me until
she wants attention or me to provide something.
-This cat makes me feel used.
-Sometimes I wonder if she loves me, or just loves what I can give her.
-It's a pretty one sided relationship.
-Despite all of this, I love the cat and I've chosen to keep her.
-Lord, that makes no sense, but I know you'll understand...
...Make your own application...

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of
preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

Oranges
One day I was visiting a house.
I had two oranges in my hands that a lady gave me.
As I entered the house, the mother and 5 year old son
greeted me.
I gave him an orange.
The boy was looking at me and the orange but did not
say ‘thank you.’ So the mother said, “And what do you
say?”
The young boy quipped looking at me, “Give me the other
orange too.”
