Welcome!

We are just a couple of big ol nice gals as one "gentleman" once said. Best friends since high school, we have a lot to say about life, love, family and friends and how we are just trying to feel comfortable in our own skin.

Inspiration in the midst of frogs and butter

Yeah, I don't know who created this poem but it's awesome and stupid and inspirational and quite froggy....
E.

THE OPTIMISTIC FROG

Two frogs fell into a bowl of cream.
It was a deep bowl.
One frog was on optimistic soul,
but the other took the gloomy view,
"We'll drown he cried" without more adieu,
and with a last despairing cry
he flung up his legs and said goodbye.
Quoth the other frog with a merry grin,
"I can't get out, but I won't give in".
"I'll just swim around 'til my strength is spent
then will I die with more content".
So bravely he swam until it did seem,
his struggles began to churn the cream.
On top of the butter he finally stopped,
out of the bowl he gaily hopped.
What of this moral?
'tis easily found
If you can't get out, keep swimming around.

  2. Mmm, maybe if we breaded the frogs legs and fried them in butter....
