Wisdom



It is a waste of energy to be angry with a man who behaves badly, just as it is to be angry with a car that won't go.

Kids and ducks, fun!!


So Funny!!

Your Duck is Dead--
A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinary surgeon. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird's chest.
After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and sadly said, "I'm sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has passed away."
The distressed woman wailed, "Are you sure?" "Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead," replied the vet..
"How can you be so sure?" she protested. "I mean you haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something."
The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room. He returned a few minutes later with a black Labrador Retriever. As the duck's owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed the duck from top to bottom. He then looked up at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.
The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out of the room. A few minutes later he returned with a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also delicately sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and strolled out of the room.
The vet looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."
The vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman.. The duck's owner, still in shock, took the bill. "$150!" she cried, "$150 just to tell me my duck is dead!" The vet shrugged, "I'm sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been $20, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it's now $150."

Another two ducklings left home today



They left home today to my friend's house. I hope they are girls so they can give their new owner eggs. Good luck my ducklings!

Happy birthday to me!

A special card from a dear friend:

You'er so special
You'er one of those people
who know just whar to do
to brighten up a day,
a life, a world.

Somw people wonder
If one person can really
make a difference in the world,
but I think it's possible,
Because I've seen
the difference you make
in the lives of those
around you.

You'er a wonderful example
of what a caring person should be,
and though you may not reqalize it,
when others look at you,
they see the kind of individual
they'd like to be -
I know I do!

You'er a very special person
who has made
a beautiful difference
in a lot of lives -
including mine.

Happy birthday
With Gratitude
And love

Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again

Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again --- by Xu Zhimo


Very quietly I take my leave
As quietly as I came here;
Quietly I wave good-bye
To the rosy clouds in the western sky.

The golden willows by the riverside
Are young brides in the setting sun;
Their reflections on the shimmering waves
Always linger in the depth of my heart.

The floating heart growing in the sludge
Sways leisurely under the water;
In the gentle waves of Cambridge
I would be a water plant!

That pool under the shade of elm trees
Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;
Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds
Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?

To seek a dream? Just to pole a boat upstream
To where the green grass is more verdant;
Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight
And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.

But I cannot sing aloud
Quietness is my farewell music;
Even summer insects heap silence for me
Silent is Cambridge tonight!

Very quietly I take my leave
As quietly as I came here;
Gently I flick my sleeves
Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away

Priceless card!

Here are two cards I got from work.

This one is from a patient:

Thank you for everything!! God bless...

I just can't thank you enough form all you've done.
You were there with a helping hand just when I needed it most...
Ready to pitch in and do whatever you could.
You gave me something very special-
your time-
and I'll always remember you for it.

The other one is from my manager:

Wishing you a very happy birthday!
I feel so blessed to have you on our team-
You are an excellent nurse and a very beautiful person.

Have a great birthday!
