Who ever said "It is the thought that counts" was

[QueenOH]

a lazy a** liar!


Execution (or attempted execution) of the thought counts more.

I can think up sh*t all day but if there is not effort to put that those thoughts into actions then what is the point.

I can think about going to the grocery store, but that doesn't fill my fridge with food. And what would I tell me son when he asks why there is no dinner tonight. Oh I thought about it. Is he going to be full off that thought. I don't think so.

Well okay!

I absolutely hate this saying. People use it as an excuse to give you crap and do stuff in a crappy manner. I'd rather you not have bothered if you're not going to put your all in to it.

ITA. Something I find myself saying and thinking a lot is "I'll believe it when I see it." I just no longer really go off of what people say because I've known so many people to say something and then either do nothing or do the opposite. It kind of sucks because I feel like I should be able to trust what people say but that's not real life.
