The Important Things In Life!

When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.

He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.

Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if
the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the
table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the
empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor as the laughter subsided, "I want you
to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things--your family, your children, your health, your friends and
your favorite passions --- and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life
would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.

The sand is everything else---the small stuff.

If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room
for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room
for the things that are important to you.

"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Spend time with your family and the ones you love.

There will always be time to clean the house and party it up elsewhere.

Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter!

Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee
represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked.

It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's
always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

The Clampett Family Cult

Just a little background on Cruella's family...

Let’s begin with the Cult Leader; Lucifer is Cruella’s father. He claims to be a devout Christian however; nothing could be further from the truth. He is a complete hypocrite who was under investigation by the State Police several years ago for a period of approximately six months. He was arrested and charged with indecent exposure and lewd conduct. He claimed that he was urinating on the side of the road. (You can draw your own conclusions as to what he was really doing.) He was able to plead the charge down to something lesser due to his age and his lack of an arrest record.

Next; Big Cruella is Cruella’s adoptive mother. Cruella’s biological mother is actually her aunt, (Big Cruella’s younger sister), who is a Paranoid Schizophrenic. Big Cruella; also a self proclaimed devout Christian was recently convicted of grand larceny and fraud for stealing from the elderly and disabled. Big Cruella’s biological parents were actually first cousins and the family/cult has quite a history of mental illness, mental retardation and incest.

Rumor has it; that Lucifer is Cruella’s biological father. The Clampett Compound as I understand it now, was a sort of flophouse for a wide variety of extended family rejects. Apparently there was always some unwanted, needy, dejected or even deranged cousin or aunt or uncle living there for Lucifer to prey on in addition to his own offspring of which there are four boys; Dolph, Dilbert, Dopey and Luke. In addition to Cruella, there is one sister Dizzie.

The only one to truly escape the control of Lucifer and BC (Big Cruella) is Luke and certainly not without scars. He is a good man, a true Christian and along with his wife Mary, they have denounced The Cult and have stood up for what’s right. They have given amazing support to me and my children. Luke grew up in the compound and after he married Mary they both lived there. They witnessed countless atrocities and finally escaped with their two children shortly after The Clampett Family/Cult’s facade began to crumble.
