So where did this work come from you ask? Well after being around long enough, you start to “realize” things (kind of a hint of where the title came from). Simple things actually about the way life works and they all happened to have a bit of poetic form as a sound bite. Most people refer to these as “isms” and in this case these became known as “Joe-isms”. Because as you get old, one of the things you also realize is brevity is your friend, as hey lets face it your time gets shorter everyday! So transferring a learning in a poetic pose in a short amount of time seemed a winning combo to me. Also, I only take credit for these as they are applied since every word has already been written. Its simply a matter of how you apply them to life which makes them different…
