Cheating

It’s late.

I’m buggered.

This is my cheat ...

************************

A little something to ponder...

I asked one of my friends who has crossed 70 & is heading to 80 what sort of changes he is feeling in himself?

He sent me the following very interesting lines, which I would like to share with you ....

#1  After loving my parents, my siblings, my spouse, my children, my friends, now I have started loving myself.

#2  I just realized that I am not “Atlas”. The world does not rest on my shoulders.

#3  I now stopped bargaining with vegetables & fruits vendors. A few pennies more is not going to burn a hole in my pocket but it might help the poor fellow save for his daughter’s school fees.

#4  I pay my waitress a big tip. The extra money might bring a smile to her face. She is toiling much harder for a living than me

#5  I stopped telling the elderly that they've already narrated that story many times. The story makes them walk down the memory lane & relive the past.

#6  I have learned not to correct people even when I know they are wrong. The onus of making everyone perfect is not on me. Peace is more precious than perfection.

#7  I give compliments freely & generously. Compliments are a mood enhancer not only for the recipient, but also for me. And a small tip for the recipient of a compliment, never, NEVER turn it down, just say "Thank You"

#8  I have learned not to bother about a crease or a spot on my shirt. Personality speaks louder than appearances.

#9  I walk away from people who don't value me. They might not know my worth, but I do.

#10  I remain cool when someone plays dirty to outrun me in the rat race. I am not a rat & neither am I in any race.

#11  I am learning not to be embarrassed by my emotions. It’s my emotions that make me human.

#12  I have learned that it's better to drop the ego than to break a relationship. My ego will keep me aloof, whereas with relationships I will never be alone.

#13  I have learned to live each day as if it's the last. After all, it might be the last.

#14  I am doing what makes me happy. I am responsible for my happiness, and I owe it to myself. Happiness is a choice. You can be happy at any time, just choose to be!

I decided to send this to all my friends. Why do we have to wait to be 70 or 80, why can't we practice this at any stage and age....

I stole this, I don't know who to credit it to, but thank you!

Good to share

I had a great day of sales this morning followed by a fabulous art class that absolutely took all of my remaining energy and I have come to the conclusion that I really am too old for this shizzle!

Then I came home and cooked fried rice for dinner.

Time for bed.

Nite all.
