WOODEN NICKELS (386 hits)


Today I feel it's necessary to tell you about wooden nickels. These old quotes were meant to be a teaching tool in life's lessons. They can aid you if you let them; and they give you instructions on how to live. You might find them foolish, but I'm determined they have some significance as well because they contain some value of guidance.

These are fast living days, everything is express--, zip and zap, heat and eat, run and fetch and along the way you have to watch out for those who want to use you. They'll take advantage of anything you have and they'll use what you have tricking you into all kinds of deals and manuevers. Giving you "wooden nickels" in the process. So be careful and use common sense in making or taking deals, commitments or settlements ---and by all means during your journey think of this quote:

"Don't take no wooden nickels"

People will decieve you...stay alert and watch what you do.
You can't spend wooden nickels.

That's it.

I believe that everybody has a natural built-in BS detector to tell what is face and waht is real.

The problem comes because sometimes we believe what we want to believe. We can be willlful and willing participants in our own delusions.

So that is some great advice. Always put it to the test. Healthy skepticism is always heplful.
