Do you have a life philosophy? It is on my profile page. One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, My son, the battle is between 2 wolves inside us all.
One is evil.It is anger, envy, jealousy, greed, self pity, lies, false pride, and ego. The other is good. It is joy, love, hope, humility, kindness, generosity, compassion, and faith.The kid thinks about it for a minute and asks:
Which wolf wins? The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed”.

Do you have a clean joke you can share with us? A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, ‘Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face. ‘Yes,’ the class said ‘Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn’t run into my feet?’A little fellow shouted, ‘Cause your feet ain’t empty.

Nice to meet you, Laura. Your philosophy about the two wolves is spot-on. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your post in Pogo’s ‘player spot light’ today. Be well!
Hi Laura, nice to here from you. I agree the philosophy about the wolves is spot on, and it seem that here lately more people feed evil one, You really seem like a nice person, and maybe some day we will meet I just live down the road in GA in little place call Murray co. The joke you told was cute to. Very happy you got the “spot light” today. Good luck and may God Bless you.
Wonderful philosophy, Laura – very nice to meet you. Love your joke!
I loved your philosophy, I’ll have to try and remember it, thank you for sharing
Hi, Laura! Thank you for sharing! God bless you! :)
I am memorizing your “philosophy” so that I won’t have to hunt you down in the archives to read it every day. lol Seriously though, what a gem! Thanks for sharing. God bless.
Hi Laura,
I liked your profile it’s very nice to meet you. I like your philosophy. God Bless you and your family
Laura-you sound like a genuinely nice person and your philosophy is perfect. Keep enjoying life-have as much fun as you seem to do-keep it going. Take care, be well and thanks for sharing.
I especially enjoyed your take on which celebrity to remove. Usually everyone names someone they do not like. In your case you named a couple because it would be good for them. No hate there!! In perfect harmony with your last statement and shows that you are feeding the right wolf!!
i totally agree, i was thrown off by her celebrity pick, then i kept reading and it was because she was thinking of their well being. she has to be a really sweet person, most would of pick someone they didn’t care about, i believe she is the first to pick someone for a good reason. bless u.
Hi Laura, Thank you for sharing your life with us. Neat philosophy.
thank you everyone for the nice comments I am glad that you enjoyed it I try to live by my philosophy again thank you jigsawing you can copy paste it to something that way you don’t have to memorize it
Hi Laura! I love most what you said about the celebrities and picking the young royal family to give them more private time. How unselfish you are – a wonderful thing to be. I heard the wolf comparison too, and also agree with you that the one thing I would remove would be hate. Hope to find you in a game room sometime! I play Tripeaks a lot. :-)
What a nice person you are,good jokes too.Stay sweet and thank you for sharing!
I love being outside too so nice and peaceful.. nice saying about the wolves.. it was nice to read about you have a great day..
Laura you’re such a nice person..the wolves thimg impressed me much God bless you
Hi Laura. Congratulations for being the spotlight player! I really enjoyed reading your bio and meeting you. Loved your philosophy …it really is a truism. Stay as grounded as you are and take care.
Hi Laura from another TN pogoite! We’re on the west end here and I agree with you about spring and being outside here. It’s the best. Thanks for sharing with us, you sound like a very nice lady! And very unselfish too. The comment about William and Kate was so sweet and thoughtful.
Might see ya fishin one day ifin yall get over to the TN river/ KY lake area :)
Nice Laura! Im going to start feeding the good wolf more!! Have a fun day.
Laura, yours is the most uplifting player spotlight, so glad I stopped by to read it.
Your philosophy is definitely one I will use to explain to my pre-teen granddaughter the feelings that are going on with her age group. This is one she and her friends will be able to understand – no complicated explaining -lol.
Thank you.
Awesome Laura
U rock.. May GOD continue to bless U an your family…
Love the joke to….
Peace Sandi
Hi Laura (jdblnd),
So very nice to meet you! What a wonderful life philosophy! It’s obvious you live it too, as proved by your choosing to give the “Royals” more private time. Your joke actually made me laugh out loud…thanks for that! I sure hope we can run into each other here in Pogo and get to know each other. Keep wanting and wishing the best for everyone. May you and your family be blessed boundlessly
You are a good Southern gal, the sweet tea gave it away. Hope you coninue to enjoy your time on Pogo. I too play Tri-Peaks, if I see you on there I’ll say Howdy. GL in all your games and life.
I rarely read the player spotlight part but I’m glad I did tonight. You uplifted me on a bad night during surgery recovery– thank you so much and God Bless you.

Hi, Laura, Congrats on being in the spotlight this week. I loved your life’s philosophy AND your clean joke! lol
Hello Laura, a very nice profile read.. congrats on being picked for Player Spotlight :)LOVE your philosophy on life, wow it is so true!! Maybe one day we will run into each other in Pogoland. God Bless my friend (ړײ)
hello Laura,
nice bio.
nice philosophy on wolves, too. without one there cannot be the other.
same difference as one saying theres heaven but no hell,
no god without the devil.
without one can be the other.
ps: my personal wolves equally fed, there is balence, there is no conflict.
