 Great words from Maya Angelou

Hello! 

Read to the end, you will laugh just picturing it happening.   
I love the thoughts she lives by !!!   
I didn't break the elastic... 
Don't break the elastic ! 
In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 
70+ birthday. Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older. 

And, there on television, she said it was 'exciting... ' 

Regarding body changes, she said there were many, occurring every day......like 
her breasts. They seem to be in a race to see which will reach her waist, 
first. 

The audience laughed so hard 
they cried. She is such a simple and honest woman, with 
so much wisdom in her words ! 

Maya Angelou said this : 
'I've learned that no matter 
what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, 
and it will be better tomorrow.' 

'I've learned that you can tell 
a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things : a rainy 
day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.' 

'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll 
miss them when they're gone from your life.' 

'I've learned that making a 
'living' is not the same thing 
as making a life.' 

'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.' 

'I've learned that you shouldn't 
go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need 
to be able to throw some things back...' 

'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually 
make the right decision.' 

'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.' 

'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People 
love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back....' 

'I've learned that I still have  a lot to learn..' 

'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people 
will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'
