Let a woman have her own way.

-------------------------
What a Woman Really Wants
-------------------------

King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer; he would be put to death.

The question? . . . What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end.

He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men and even the court jester. He spoke with every one, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.

Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer.

But the price would be high; as the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged.

The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.

The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur's closest friend!

Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc. He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life.

He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden; but Lancelot, learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice, compared to Arthur's life and the preservation of the Round Table.

Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered Arthur's question thus:

What a woman really wants, she answered . . . is to be in charge of her own life.

Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's life would be spared.

And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.

The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened

The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth be her horrible, deformed self only half-the-time and the beautiful maiden the other half.

Which would he prefer? Beautiful during the day . . . or night?

Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day, a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch? Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day, but by night, a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous intimate moments?

What would YOU do?

What Lancelot chose is below. BUT . . . make YOUR choice before you scroll down below. OKAY?

Noble Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.

Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.

Now . . . what is the moral to this story?

The moral is . . .

If you don't let a woman have her own way . . .

Things are going to get ugly!

Don't mess with old people

HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.

George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed
when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed,
which she could see from the bedroom window.

George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw
that there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and
he said "no". Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he
should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when
available. George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned
the police again.

"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were
people s tealing things from my shed Well, you don't have to worry about
them now because I've just shot them." Then he hung up.

Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response Unit,
and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the
burglars red-handed.

One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"
George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

(True Story) I LOVE IT - Don't mess with old people!!

Dating, Love and Relationship Do's and Don'ts

Start out by working on your relationship with yourself first.  It is sometimes so hard for us to accept ourselves as our defenses weaken against outside negativity or critisism....even if the critisism is supposed to be constructive in nature.  Sometimes we are so busy trying to find love that we don't realize the obvious truth that love has to find us.  To try to make love happen, is to see it end up feeling forced or fake.  This is usually because of our own preconcieved notions of when things should happen.  But two people have to become comfortable with their own timing of which responsibilities to take on even in the dating game. 

  • Try not to assume that the other person is ready to take on more responsibilities (no matter what they tell you at first about that subject) just because YOU are ready to take on more. 
  • Timing is everything so wait until the right time arrives to express your feelings.  Call me for a reading on your special timing and circumstances.
  • Accept yourself for who you are completely because if you don't accept yourself then nobody else will either.
  •  If you think of dating as work, then who says work isn't fun?  Want to make it fun?  Call me and I'll tell you how!!
  • You are complex and so is she/he, so why shouldn't she/he take the time to know you?  Aren't you worth getting to know?
  • DON'T tell your whole life's story on the first date or all in one night!  Why, you ask?  Call me and I'll explain that one to you!!
  • When talking about your past, NEVER sing the old "she/he done me wrong" song!  Why, you ask?  Call me for a reading and I'll explain that one to you!!
  • I know you know how to give.  Do you know how to take within a relationship to make it work with a healthy balance?  Call me and I'll show you how.
  • Setting reasonable boundaries is a form of communication which preserves your own dignity and respects the other person whom you are setting boundaries upon as well because they will then know what to expect.  Call me to learn how to set boundaries and communicate your wishes.

The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.

The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".

The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"

The little girl replied, "Then you ask him ".

One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.

She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?"

Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white."

The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

"Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'

A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, she's dead."

A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face."

"Yes," the class said.

"Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?"

A little fellow shouted,
"Cause your feet ain't empty."
-----------------------------------------------

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray:

"Take only ONE. God is watching."

A child had written a note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples.
