A little late to the game this year with lessons from 2017. (If you caught January Musings, you know know there was a lot going on in our house!)
Every year, I like to take a little space and think about a few notes I jotted down over the year. (Notes are over in Random, if you want to have look at this year's, so far.) These are insights I realize, as I go about living, that are really life lessons to which I should be paying attention.
This year, #3 was a way I learned to deal with toxic people who trigger buttons. Repeatedly. And #4 was demonstrated over and over again. If I had one piece of advice for people, it would be meet your commitments - even the small ones - or don't make them.
WHAT I LEARNED IN 2017
- Plans are subject to change.
- Use anti-aging hand cream early in life.
- Don't communicate angry. Calm down first.
- Most people have NO idea how flaky they are and how it impacts others.
- Try to be tolerant. Because someone else is tolerating you.
Take-away - For people growth is a personal choice. Do you choose to wither or grow into something amazing?
PS - The berries are a mystery. We spotted them in a container garden in November in the Midwest. They almost look naturally silvery. Gorgeous!
