Be Kinder.

I've been wallowing more than I really need to. While on my way to the gym, instead of feeding on my frustration, I pulled over to the next grocery store and bought two bouquets of flowers. I didn't know who I was going to give them to, but I needed to give them to someone. Despite who they were, the peace in me grew that morning.

My daughter won these glasses at a pizza arcade a few nights ago. The other day as I was fussing and bussing, she handed them to me and said, "Cheer up, mom! Calm down." I put these glasses on as a reminder to disguise all my fears and breathed, "1, 2, 3, 4..."

Simple reminders I need them.
