If you marry a Scottish Woman

Thanks to Calvin for this 
 Three friends married women from different parts of the world......
The first man married a Greek girl. He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. After a couple of days he noticed that his wife was indeed making an effort and on the third day he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.
The second man married a Thai. He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking.
The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he saw it was better. By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done, and there was a huge dinner on the table.
The third man married a girl from Scotland . He ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry done, and hot meals on the table on time.
He said the first day he didn't see anything at all. The second day he didn't see anything either but by the third day some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye and his arm was healed enough that he could fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher. He still has some difficulty when he pees.

Deepest Fear

This is an interesting viewpoint on living
Our Deepest Fear  by Marianne Williamson from her bestselling book A Return to Love
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us. 
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? 
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world. 
There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We were all born to manifest the glory of God within us. 
Its not just some of us; it's in everyone. 
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-Marianne Williamson
