So we are out to lunch yesterday at The Blue Moose.. one of our favorite places to nosh.. and I came across this page in their drink menu titled Zen Sarcasm.. pictured right via my phone camera. Here are a few gems:Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.
If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a few car payments.
Before you criticize someone you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away and you have their shoes.
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
These are great!!! I love the fish one :)
ReplyDeleteAnd the last one is so true!
It's hard to choose a favorite from among these gems. Probably the one on being unique. At first it just sounds funny. But, it's deeply profound. I used to wonder how G-d could love each of us uniquely when He has billions of children. That is until I had two of my own.
