I like reading quotes......some are realistic. Ben Franklin's "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise" makes me laugh tho. I go to bed early, am early to rise, and a bit wise, tho sometimes I wonder, but it never got me wealthy, and with all my aches and pains, I really doubt the healthy part. Oh well.......Old Ben lived long ago. Sigh !!!
What a wonderful post, Linda. I've gotta say-I'm in TOTAL agreement with Dwight D Eisenhower and Abraham Lincoln-they hit the nail right on the head.
Myra-I'm with you-that quote makes me smile. Sometimes I go to bed early-that wakes me up in WEE hours of the morning which only frustrates the heck out of me...can't see that it's made me any healthier........sure hasn't made me wealthy and there's no one in this house that would attest to me being WISE!
