The Perfect Diet

A terribly overweight blonde woman goes to her doctor about her
weight, so her doctor puts her on a diet.  

“I want you to eat vegetables and grains for 2 days, then skip a 
day, and repeat this procedure for 2 weeks.  The next time I see 
you, you will have lost at least 5 pounds.”

When the blonde returned, she shocked the doctor by losing nearly 
20 pounds.

“Why, that’s amazing!” the doctor said, “Did you follow my
instructions?”

The blonde nodded.  “I’ll tell you though, I thought I was going 
to drop dead that third day.”

“From hunger, you mean?”
“No, from skipping.”

Our Stuff

The truth is, that all of the “STUFF” here on earth we work so hard to buy and accumulate..does not mean a thing. At the end of the day…people will be cleaning out our “STUFF”, going thru our “STUFF”, figuring out what to do with all of our “STUFF”….this “STUFF” we’ve accumulated in our life. The only thing of value that remains are the memories and what we deposit into others. May we all learn to spend less time accumulating “STUFF” and spend way more time making memories.
