The principles I do live by and the principles I should live by, are two different things.
I’m mediocre in every sense of the word. I know the ideals I should be striving for, the morals I want to pass down to my kids.
But a lot of the time in my daily life, I miss the mark. And I don’t really care, if I’m being honest. I mean I’m not out committing crimes or murdering people but I’m also far from saintly.
There are saintly people who walk this earth. I know several. Well okay, I know three actually. They are always happy for others, they take a genuine interest in what’s going on with you, they are guru-ish, without even knowing it. They couldn’t do a bad thing or think a bad thought if their life depended on it.
Imagine just waking up and only thinking positive happy thoughts. Being so generous with uplifting and encouraging words towards others.
The thing is, they don’t even realize they are like that. They’re completely unaware. And that makes them even more pure.
It’s turkey day today. I’m making the big Thanksgiving meal and so very excited about it. It’s my favourite meal on earth. Turkey, stuffing, ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, glazed carrots, lazy cabbage rolls, green bean casserole and a salad are on the menu. My older daughter is supposedly contributing mac ‘n cheese too as per her sister’s request.
I made two pies yesterday, one blueberry and the other pecan. I cannot wait to dive on in.
