Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Most gas stations in the South have little change dishes by the register. If you’re paying for a transaction and need an extra penny or two, you simply take one from the dish. People then reciprocate this good turn by dropping a few coins in the dish from time to time, thereby creating a community bank of sorts, based on goodwill.
So in that spirit, this is Southern Plate’s “Give A Penny, Get A Penny” page.” I dearly love positive quotes and am always scouring the web for more so I thought this would be a great place to compile all of those. I’ll post mine, you post yours, and we can all “Give A Penny” when we have one and come back to “Get A Penny” when we need one.
I’ll also draw from these quotes to include at the bottom of my posts and emails that I send out to Southern Plate readers and be sure to credit the person who provided it, so include a link to your blog if you have one.
I would consider it a personal favor if you’d take the time to share a quote of motivation or positivity in the comments section below. Quote yourself, your Mama, someone famous, or our best friend “Anonymous”, it doesn’t matter, long as you drop your penny and then come back on one of those days when you feel like you might need one yourself.
Gratefully,
Christy
A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end. It keeps us together
like our Circle of Friends. But the treasure inside for you
to see is the treasure of friendship you’ve granted to me.
MY OATH TO YOU…
When you are sad……I will dry your tears.
When you are scared……I will comfort your fears.
When you are worried……I will give you hope.
When you are confused…..I will help you cope.
And when you are lost…and can’t see the light, I
shall be your beacon…shining ever so bright.
This is my oath….. I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask?…..Because you’re my friend.
Signed:
GOD
My Father once gave me his advice about the importance of having a savings account, and making regular deposits, right after I got my first job.
“Unless you are born into money, one day you’re going to have to do without some things … either when you’re young or when you’re old. When you’re young, it’s your choice.”
~W.H. Wallis
The importance of his words his words never left me.

I have had this for so long not sure where I got it, but it is taped on my PC for me to see every morning…

PS I love and collect quotes…….
While bottled water, city water, well water, spring water are all good. It is the LIVING WATER of JESUS that is the BEST!
I made up this quote for the Family I married into and the One I grew up in :
THE FAMILY THAT EATS THIER OWN, EVENTUALLY WILL EAT ALONE.
FUNNY, BUT TRUE, RIGHT????
Be kind to one another …. Jesus
