For your consideration……
Think about it. When we were growing up, we were never told “Use your manners except when….” In turn we do not tell our own children to use their manners except when…..”
We don’t give exceptions because their aren’t any. Just because someone else is not using theirs does not mean we get a pass on using ours. Just because we are mad or offended is not does not give us an excuse to use bad manners.
Good manners keep us on the high road. It shows that we have respect for ourselves and others. There is never a bad time for them. They are always in fashion and always welcome.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take……
-Meditate/pray…..ask….”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Mind your manners. Be the example. Remember if we “fall off of the wagon” and forget our manners, we can jump right back on. That’s the good thing about good manners.
What made me smile yesterday……
-A really “chill” day.
-Hearing from both my girls.
-Inspired cooking.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
