    I would have to say mine is: It is what it is .. cannot change or control it, only try to correct it.
    (this refers to my mistakes!LOL)

    The complete saying is: "My Mama always said, 'them that can't hear can feel'". This saying can be traced at least 5 generations in my family:)

    My DD has a t-shirt with "Put on your Big Girl panties and deal with it". Just love that.

    One of my favorite sayings is:

    I won't be wronged
    I won't be insulted
    I won't be laid a hand on
    I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.

    (I think this has been credited to John Wayne, but I am not sure.)

    Or another one goes something like this, "never make anybody a priority who considers you an option"

    'I have no bad days because all of my days could have been worse. That makes them good days.'

    A friend of mine that lived to age 96 was always coming up with little sayings. When things were going downhill she would always say:

    Life.....you muddle your way through it and then you die.
