Work without Play -
And doubt my mind…

O

your only half as old as you are smart
by counting my blessings every day my hindsight doubles
all work and no play makes jack a dull boy

you wouldn't believe the irony....seriously

Premium Member Holiday Limericks


The thought of holidays makes me crazy;
If not planned well we will become lazy.
My mom’s face turns very red, 
Seeing me always in bed.
She wants me to be like a fresh daisy!

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy;
All play and no work is not a wise ploy.
Balance between work and play
Drives monotony away.
Joy is yours, this trick if you well deploy!

Halloween Escape

Lose yourself within a song
For many with music you can never go wrong
Go deep sea exploring as you dive into a book
Perhaps search for buried treasure with Captain Hook
Choose for yourself a different name
Become a different character through realms of a video game
Its so easy to get caught up in a world of all work and no play
Escape from reality and fulfill a fantasy on Halloween day

All Work and No Play

All work and no play 
Makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play 
Makes a life without joy

Don’t live to work
Take time for leisure
You should work to live
Life should be a pleasure

You don’t have to work
Every hour that God sends
Spend precious time
With family and friends

Don’t work all the time Jack 
Get this into your head
You’re only alive for a short time
But you’re a long time dead

Onward And Upward

Until it's time to pop my clogs, shuffle off this mortal coil, I'll ensure my life is fun-filled not just daily drudgery and toil. As all work and no play would make me one dull boy, listless, senseless, bored witless, not my Mother's pride and joy. And so, in closing, I'm compelled to say, "Exercise free will, don't wait, hesitate or trust to fate, before you're over the hill."

All Work and No Play

Two roads diverged in a yellow 
wood
And I wondered if I really 
should
Take the one more traveled by
Or let my mind sprout wings 
and fly. 

I had a scheduled conference 
call
And a ton of please reply to all
I need that project yesterday
Too much work no time to play

Long I stood and looked down 
one
Carefully weighing what must 
be done
So long that I let the moment 
pass
Then took the safer well worn 
path.
