Wise Words for Thursday

OK...These words below have been going around for years and years by email. Though some are trite and others are things you've heard from the Dali Lama or some other Godly source, I think these little pieces of advice are very, very wise.

So, I will leave you with these words of wisdom for today. I am sad today for some reason. I'm missing my Koty and Sadie really badly and am feeling the loss of my husband in my life. I could always count on him. Though things were not always pretty in our marriage, he was ALWAYS there when I needed him and I felt very secure in that, if that makes any sense....I miss that.

I am ok. You do not need to call me Mom. I will have sad days here and there. It's normal!

I am going to go love my doggie and take care of my bad self. Enjoy these words below, and take them to heart...Enjoy!
