Some notes from time off
As you age you will no longer apologize for who you are
Your peace is paramount
You will realize you control nothing
You will find the best and worst of humanity in the same day
You will still question your worth when it gets shattered. It will get shattered. People may mean well, but execution is lacking.
I will have to remind myself that Lord they know what they do mentality
Poor in net worth, Rich in spirit. Reconciling this dichotomy now.
I love your phrase, "people may mean well, but execution is lacking." We have to do better, right? More caring, more helping, more loving.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful July week, dear Regine.
I was commenting on your posts while you were commenting on mine!
DeleteGood thoughts
ReplyDeleteWise words Regine. Wishing you a very happy Monday and a wonderful week
ReplyDelete'As you age you will no longer apologize for who you are.' That is so true. And you're right, we need to be kind, and more considerate of others. That would change the world!
ReplyDeletewe control our spirit and happiness. and we can control how we treat others. if you give kindness, most times, you will receive it back!!
ReplyDeleteAll in all, I do hope your vacation time had some moments of peace and rest, regardless of other people. And if not, then I pray that you are getting the much needed rest now that you are safe at home again. Sometimes being home is the best vacation.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with Pamela - sometimes being at home IS the best vacation! Relax and roll with the punches, Regine.
ReplyDeleteDon't you wish we learned these dozens of years ago?
ReplyDeleteGlad to read your post. Stay well. Greetings.
ReplyDeleteTo show God's love with gentleness, and to respect the other person by asking what they need, not assuming we know what is best for them, is so important.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, as we age, we do not apologise for who we are!
Blessings

These are such powerful thoughts. I especially liked the one about finding the best and worst of humanity in the same day. It always seems to be that way, doesn't it?
