Loved your post, thanks for sharing!Good Morning!
#1 - From my Grandma - Always keep your house company ready, so you never have to say, “Don’t mind the mess, I wasn’t expecting anyone to come over.” Do I follow this advice? Yes I do - always! Now, my house may have a little dust and the floor may not be freshly cleaned, but everything is always vacuumed and put away. The bathrooms are always clean. To the naked eye, the house always looks clean. Sometimes I stand at the front door, in the entry way, and look around to see what others would see when standing there to make sure everything is acceptable.
#2 - From my Grandma - Always look like a million dollars regardless of the day, finances, emotions or anything else. Do I follow this advice? Absolutely! Even in the toughest times, I will always look like it’s one of my best days - probably better. The better I make myself look, the better I’ll feel, and I don’t want the way I look to show others how I feel. I don’t wear my emotions on my sleeve.
#3 - From my Grandpa - Never stop learning. Do I follow this? Yes - I enjoy reading about different things, going to museums and reading a lot of things posted at exhibits, watching documentaries and more. My DH recently, this year, started working at a Chicago museum, one that we’ve visited our entires lives. When he took the job, the first thing I said to him was - my Grandpa is smiling from heaven. He would be so proud and excited for you.
Move on. Each day the sun starts over.
Most excellent!I have been saving quotations that I like for years. Here are 3 that I need to be reminded of often, especially the two about worrying! (Which I am sorry that I have no attributions for)
Miracles start to happen when you give as much energy to your dreams as you do to your fears.
It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities
Dumbledore
Fear does not stop death. It stops life.
And worrying does not take away tomorrow’s troubles. It takes away today’s peace.
