Fridays fable - "If" there are balloons

I have started really looking forward to Chrissy's Friday fables.
She laways posts beautful pieces of art with beautiful poems to get the old mojo going!
And this week is no exception!

I love "If" by Rudyard Kipling.

"IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:"

I think we all know someone who makes our lives difficult from time to time,
and it can be hard to keep your head.
But laughing at them can often be the most satisfying response....
maybe something to do more often....

Anyway.

The picture was " Ballooning over Paris "- I. Lane
And I have a new sugar nellie stamp that is just perfect for this....
As Maggie is holding a stick and you get four wee accessories to add on to stick.
One of them a balloon!
But I do like the thought of it being a wee wand!
Well me being a witch and all.....






I am going to send this to Nikki who has sent me a get well card.
Really made me smile today....
