![]() People may forget what you do, and they may forget what you say, but they will never forget the way you made them feel. Love the people who treat you right and have compassion for the ones who don’t.” Life is too short to wake up with regrets. Then he continued to say “You know, life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people I’m not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like every other human.īut what I’ve learned over the years, is that learning to accept each others faults and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences, is one of the most important keys for creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship. And besides, A burnt toast never hurts anyone but you know what does? Harsh words!” “Your momma put in a very long day at work today and she was very tired. Later that night, I went to tell my dad good night and ask him if he really liked his toast burned. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember hearing my mom apologizing to dad for burning the toast. But Dad just ate his toast and asked me if I did my homework and how my day was. ![]() I was just waiting to see if anyone noticed the burnt toast and say anything. ![]() Not slightly burnt but completely blackened toast. One night that stood out in my mind is when she had made dinner for us after a very long and rough day at work, She placed a plate of jam and extremely burned toast in front of my dad. Its been a tough time for the one-time music video regular, but this 'groovy hippie chick,' as ZZ Topper Billy Gibbons once described her, still knows how to use her legs, so thats something. When I was about eight or nine, my mom liked to cook food and every now and then I remember she used to cook for us. Her house even burned down in the Montecito Tea Fire of 2008, leaving her homeless and alone. I wish every couple would get a chance to read this incredibly touching story. We should learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of our lives and see the positive side of things. The lesson is pretty simple yet very important. They teach their kids how to be great adults by showing them how to be one. This simple story is a true definition of parents setting a great example for their kids. I’m not even sure whether the story is true or not, but it serves a meaningful purpose. And there, in the garbage she did hate, Poor Sarah met an awful fate, That I cannot now relate Because the hour is much too late.I’ve read about this story a long time ago. The garbage reached across the state, From New York to the Golden Gate. And finally Sarah Cynthia Stout said, "OK, I'll take the garbage out!" But then, of course, it was too late. And all the neighbors moved away, And none of her friends would come to play. At last the garbage reached so high That it finally touched the sky. Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs, Globs of gooey bubble gum, Cellophane from green baloney, Rubbery blubbery macaroni, Peanut butter, caked and dry, Curdled milk and crusts of pie, Moldy melons, dried-up mustard, Eggshells mixed with lemon custard, Cold french fried and rancid meat, Yellow lumps of Cream of Wheat. The garbage rolled on down the hall, It raised the roof, it broke the wall. It filled the can, it covered the floor, It cracked the window and blocked the door With bacon rinds and chicken bones, Drippy ends of ice cream cones, Prune pits, peach pits, orange peel, Gloppy glumps of cold oatmeal, Pizza crusts and withered greens, Soggy beans and tangerines, Crusts of black burned buttered toast, Gristly bits of beefy roasts. And so it piled up to the ceilings: Coffee grounds, potato peelings, Brown bananas, rotten peas, Chunks of sour cottage cheese. Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would not take the garbage out! She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans, Candy the yams and spice the hams, And though her daddy would scream and shout, She simply would not take the garbage out.
