THE POWER OF FAMILY

Aug 27

THE POWER OF FAMILY

Family is,
heaven sent from our father above,
bonded by the power of love.
No matter what, family has each other’s back,
when push comes to shove.

Family is,
understanding, never demanding,
all for one and one for all,
I will never leave you alone standing.

Family is,
one in itself, my love is your love,
your pain is my pain, my wealth is your wealth,
I promise to never leave you by yourself.

Family is,
the strongest team, the strongest unit;
if love could be visualized,
family would be the blue print.

Family is,
forgiveness and patience,
it’s sweeter than the sweetest fragrance,
the power of family is a reflection of God’s compassion and magnificence.

Family is,
never turning our back, and never shames,
lend my helping hand and not a finger pointing the blame.

No matter what, a family bond can never be broken,
even through a nuclear explosion,
if one of us lives we all live.
Forever to eternity, we are family,
my father, my mother, my sisters and me.

“Recently I went on a trip to the Dominican Republic with some friends. It was a great time, we went to the beach, saw the night scenes, and had some real Dominican food. I also was awarded the Co-Chair position for a program I am in at Drexel University called BRIDGE. It stands for ‘Building Relationships in Diverse Group Environments’. As Co-Chair, I am the leader of Executive Board Meetings. I help plan trips (Spring break trip) and other meetings for the program. I will graduate this June, 2016 Thank you image5Jesus! But other than that, nothing much has changed. I plan on enjoying the rest of my year at Drexel and look forward to future endeavors.”

——–I would like to thank our children for the lovely evening they arranged for Fletcher and I to celebrate my 75th Birthday last year. It was fabulous! We were blessed to have had all our children and grandchildren present. They were at the restaurant when we arrived to our surprise. The dinner was hosted at Evviva’s in Narberth, PA. The service, the food, ‘the cake’ was superb and we all had a delightful time!
I thank God for Blessing me to live another year and to be in relatively good health. I thank our sons, our wonderful daughters-in law, our grandchildren and my husband for being who they are, loving God and family and having the goal of living a good life. God Bless,
Mary

THE LAWS OF LIFE
Law of Mechanical Repair
After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch or you’ll have to pee.

Law of the Workshop
Any tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.

Law of Probability
The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.

Law of the Telephone
If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal.

Law of the Alibi
If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the very next morning you will have a flat tire.

Variation Law
If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will start to move faster than the one you are in now (works every time).

Law of the Bath
When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings

Law of Close Encounters
The probability of meeting someone you know increases dramatically when you are with someone you don’t want to be seen with.

Law of the Result
When you try to prove to someone that a machine won’t work, it will.

Law of Biomechanics
The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.

Law of the Theater
At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle arrive last.

Law of Coffee
As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.

Murphy’s Law of Lockers
If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.

Law of Rugs/Carpets
The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor covering are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet/rug.

Law of Location
No matter where you go, there you are.

Law of Logical Argument
Anything is possible if you don’t know what you are talking about.

Brown’s Law
If the shoe fits, it’s ugly.

Oliver’s Law
A closed mouth gathers no feet.

Wilson’s Law
As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it. (This one is true every time!)

Doctors’ Law
If you don’t feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there you’ll be fine.
