Pearls of Wisdom on a Saturday in February

Remember when you are going through something and you say to yourself, "This will get better." or "I hope this gets better." Don't forget to take stock and look at the now and say to yourself, "Wow, it did get better." Don't forget to enjoy the now, stop waiting for something to happen because it will and when it does, you are strong enough to handle it. Appreciate the little moments.

An oldie but a goodie from our Hallmark friend Maxine, "When you touch bottom, remember it's all in who's bottom you are touching" And a second favorite, "When life hands you lemons, tuck 'em in your bra, can't hurt, might help."

You know that saying, "When God closes one door he opens another." Well, he's a prankster, so they are usually not obvious and sometimes you think, "I can't fit through there," but the lesson is usually not easy, so what makes you think that the door or fitting through the door would be?

When a friend says to you, I NEED this. Do whatever you can to make that happen. Sometimes it's just seeing that someone is willing to make an effort that makes the difference.

When someone asks you what makes you unique, when in doubt, use "I love cheese."

If you are feeling blah and out of sorts, get up and do something really physical. Clean the garage, organize the pantry, clean up the yard, it may seem silly, but it helps to get those muscles moving and helps to clear the cobwebs from your head, too.

Olive Garden's unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks is sometimes just what you need.

Always try something new. Even if you think you won't like it. Try, you might surprise yourself.

Tell the people that touch your life, impact your life, no matter where they come from--home, work, play--that they matter to you. Life is short and sometimes it ends unexpectedly.

No matter how many times you have said it before, tell the people that matter that you love them, often.

Spread joy and happiness like it's going out of style.

Happy Saturday in February!
I love you!
