Praise God! (I've Got a Big Fat Belly)

Praise God, Praise God! I've a big fat belly, I've a cavernous, enormous, gourmand's pouch! Praise God, Jehovah! My appetite is nearly limitless, thank Him too that I'm not charming. Truly it is impossible to train me so thank God, thank God when I fall I'm well protected. I could be seperated by one two ten a dozen years and still I am not learned a little puppy a sheep a deer with stars in my eyes so praise Him, praise Him that nobody falls with me, let me land flat on my face, maybe this is the best instruction.

I don't know what to say

I wish I could hold up a mirror that shows you only your beautiful soul and generous loving nature. You could be twice the size and still a better man than I am, gunga din. Remember when god instructed you to "love thy neighbour as thyself" he did include thyself. cheers, Jess

thanks my friend

I have been trying, and hopefully sincerely and earnestly, to balance love for others / self with humility. I've noticed I am naturally proud, and not in a positive way. One of my inherent weaknesses. I certainly am not better than you, nor anyone for that matter. I just have better connections :) Btw, nice picture of your pussy

Perusing through your works again, and just had to stop in for a read on this one! Catchy title, nice flow, and though humorous, it's nice that you have self confidence. Really enjoyed this. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- -"If your mother still drives you to school, you ain't no 'gangsta', pull your damn pants up!" - Bill Engvall

Ah, we are all proud and pride goeth before a fall so I will have to agree with you here. I hope no one falls with me. Good write and I love the title. Respectfully, Rett: "Life is like a beach. Salty, gritty, somewhat fishy and at other times, downright crabby" Rett: 2008
