The Trite Stuff: It Might Have Been

Saturday, February 9, 2013. It Might Have Been. Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these - It might have been." John Greenleaf Whittier. It is true that when something does not happen to which we were looking forward, we are not happy about the situation. However, it is equally true that when something does not happen that we were dreading, we are relieved. It might have been . that a mother died instead of living through an ordeal.

The Trite Stuff: The First Step
http://thetritestuff.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-first-step.html
Friday, February 8, 2013. Since you don't know what you can accomplish until you try, I've decided suddenly to launch a single-purpose blog, dedicated to the ruthless and wanton panning of the myriad "wise sayings" that are posted, pinned, and otherwise propagated on the interwebs.
