A keen sense of humor helps us overlook the unbecoming, understand the unconventional, tolerate the unpleasant, overcome the unexpected and outlast the unbearable.
- Billy Graham
Believe it or not the following story is true . This really happened when I was much younger. Today I know I would break a bone or two
While on a trip a while back i tripped and I really mean tripped
I walked into a McDonalds, the floor was wet and I slipped
A few little girls watched as I did a complete flip
Head over heels and came back up on my feet again
It happened fast and I stood there as the laughter began
So I simply gave them a bow and walked on in
I know not why I reacted as I did but what the hey
I managed to give someone a reason to laugh that day
I'm amazed at your quick recovery--of your feet and your pride. You probably had those little girls wondering all day whether it was an accident or you had done that flip for them. "What the hey!"
