Parting thought....

Never search for your happiness in others, this will make you feel alone. Instead search for it in yourself and you will feel happy even if you are left alone....

Alternative Philosophy: join your local Rotary Club, you will never feel alone, never be further than a phone call or email away from a friend, never be bored or have nothing to do, never not have a reason to spend some hard earned money, never wonder what to do at the weekend, never know which brand of sausages are the best, will become a great public speaker, will learn how to handle stress (hee hee .)..... etc etc. Our club is the best! See you all tomorrow.
