Reading these quotes, reminded me of my mother's wisdom as she lead me down the road called "Life." (smile)
Mom would say:
"If the farmer can get the milk free from the cow, he isn't gonna buy it!"
"Well honey, if their talking about you, then they're leaving everyone else alone."

My mom used that quote too! She was always reminding me to hold out for God's best!
Thanks for a fun reminder...

must be a "mom quote"...one of those things all moms eventually say. i've not used it yet, but i am sure i will! what's funny is my mom used the spanish version...she's cuban. :)
It was a "grandma quote" for me.
Thanks for sharing!
I love you darlin' Praying for you!

When I first heard the one about the farmer, I was possibly in my 20s. I had to think about the meaning at first. Then it clicked.
I was yet older when I heard the other one. I was taught it was not nice to talk about others in a negative way. But, I don't believe it was modeled before me until I was older.
Thanks for sharing these...I have heard the first one, but not the second one....
Oh my goodness -- I love sayings like that and my mom and grandmother had quite a few of their own. When I find myself repeating them my kids just shake their heads. LOL
Hey my friend! I have never heard that second quote before.
Just wanted to stop by and say hello. Miss our chats! :)
I hope all is well.
Much love to you!
Thinking of you and your ministry tonight. May God continue to bless you and all He leads to your blog and beyond.
hugs from Colorado.
