Hi dear friends!
Well, I have taken a bit of a risk… It’s Friday!!!!!
What do we do when our offers of sharing sem to get rejected or sidelined? I have this with some groups I am involved with… There are things that I am really good at, but they don’t want my help… Except with stuff no one else will do cos it might involve getting extremely cold for instance…
I’m very easy going, with everyone… Smile grabbing I work at all the time. I could never go on a deliberately adults only holiday…
Discussing bunions etc is just awful…
Kids break the ice… Lots of smiles and excitement.
Being ignored in society can be so dismal. If I go somewhere else is okay, but we all need to be acknowledged don’t we? People can be so crue, Can’t they?
I seem to attract some really awful people to work with….
Tbe sunsbine today in tbe uk jas been pleasant… Maybe we can go out for a walk wnen grandchildren arrive tomorrow… We have some outside play equipment near us, then it is straight into costa for a drink and cake…
The thing about going into a cafe, is the chance to hear others complaining about the same things that trouble ourselves.
When we understand how much something really costs, we value it more, treasure it more…, Even appreciate it. Whereas a mere expense account item, has no real percieved value, to anyone, and end up wanting more and more to absolute excess.
If you have no small children of your own, simply hang out where other people’s are! A few hours at a time is wonderful! The problem is keeping up with them!
I have had to resort to abandoning windows, cos I can’t stop them updating my system. I just want my software left as it is… I really struggle with computers… We didn’t have them at school, I even struggle with metric measurements! Even decimal currency was a big issue for me in the beginning, just remember what it did to the price of sweets!
So… If people don’t accept you sharing, simply move to others… We all need positive feedback and a little reassurance at times. We don’t need to risk burnout…
Don’t forget to treat yourself sometimes and often. Smiling in the mirror is not vain if it is done silently. A nice hairdresser’s appointment can really lift us up. Just a shampoo and dry off whe someone else is administering it is really nice…
Happy Easter everyone regardless of faith if any. A little chocolate, or even maybe a biscuit and cuppa… A breath of fresh air…
We are all definitely worth something… Based on the amount of real friends we have, people who love us for who we are, rarher than how much we pay them…
So, let’s keep smile- grabbing… We appreciate it more…
Unti next Friday 4 April dear friends, about 6pm uk time, right here…
