CLICHE'S AND OLD SAYINGS

Momma Said There Will Be Days Like This

     As a high school student it was an uphill battle, I struggled and was at my wit's end. My mom waited on hand and foot, so I could get thru school. She said at the rate I was going I would have the short end of the stick. Now this might tickle your fancy, but I got the third degree and was quiet as a mouse. So my mom says you're in the doghouse, everything goes in one ear and out the other, A hard head makes a soft behind.  In a nutshell the handwriting was on the wall, and I had to go at it with hammer and tongs. Good, bad or indifferent it was all in a day's work. I had to thank GOD for getting me through high school and finally going to college. I worked night and day on my assignments and still came up two grapes short of a fruit salad.
     The professor said, Mr. Stewart you will not make it in my class, and I said, I will because GOD has got me this far! The professor said, Who is the boss around here anyway? It's a jungle out there, It's my way or the highway and how do you know that GOD is real? I told the professor my moms said the sun always shines after the rain, To everything there is a season, Life is what you make it, You'll never know if you don't try, you win some, lose some, but GOD said! "I will be with you". But wait!, Pinch me to see if I'm dreaming,  I began to see a chink in the armor, this was music to my ears, there's no time like the present, this is better than sliced bread. I mean in the blink of an eye, In the thick of it, his bark is worse than his bite. You can hear a pin drop, then the professor said a mother's work is never done, It's better to find a whole worm in your apple than half a worm, so let's sleep on it and talk about it in the morning. We never had our talk and I passed his class with a B. Momma said there will be days like this. I guess I didn't get the short end of the stick after all, God works in mysterious ways.
