Do you remember these?

I have been struggling with depression for a while. I only know this because lately, I have been sleeping the days away. So you will find that I am concentrating on humour a lot. I have always believed that laughter can cure or at least alleviate many ills and today I am going to try some of the really old jokes. For instance: Why did the chicken cross the road? .......... To get to the other side!

Cue laughter! And you know for some reason you just can't not laugh at that joke.

Here is one from a Facebook page
 
And this one is from SparkPeople

And finally one from Instagram


Live, Laugh, Love

When I started this post I intended to write something entirely different but I am very disturbed at the moment by a conversation I just had on instant messenger and I want to share it with you. Tell me do you think I am wrong to take this stance or not? The grey is my daughter the blue is me

May the sun be with us! Except with the quiet coming of March be on the lookout for at least one more big storm before the end of the month. I love the sun but I always hope March comes in like a lion so that it will go out like a lamb. I can deal with cold and snow early in the month but I always wish for the beauty of sun and green buds on the trees at the end of it.

So where did the phrase 'In like a lamb, out like a lion' come from?

There are several ideas:

While many sayings are base on observation and are accurate, others are the rhymes and beliefs of those who came before us.
Those folks actually believed that bad spirits could change the weather adversely, so they were cautious as to what they did or didn't do in certain situations.  Those beliefs also included ideas that there could be a balance in weather and in life.
