Some Enlightening Excerpts From My Book Mama Said!
by Gail Jones
Monday, September 7, 2009

Rated "G" by the Author.

       


     Can you recall the time that you spent with your grandmother, church mother, neighborhood mom, big mama, or any women of wisdom in your life. Their words were for encouragement and through their words our lives were shaped. Furthermore, it is because of these one liner lessons that we have learned to be strong survivors as they were. Their sayings have not only helped us come to grips with life's many hard situations but they have enabled us to rise above hardship and fly even in the middle of our storms!

Mama Said...

Put your money where your mouth is

And Bite your tongue sometime.

 

Mama Said...

The ditch you dig for others might be your own.

 

Mama Said...

A Hard Head will make a Soft Behind!

 

Mama Said...

You learn how to do a job by doing it.

 

Mama Said..

What's in you will come out of you.

 

Mama Said...

A true friend is in season and out of season!

 

That's What Mama Said...

And What I'll Never Forget!
