Here comes December with all of its
thinking, planning, buying and gift
giving, to say nothing of decorating,
cooking and partying. If at all possible,
I'd like to hold onto the thankfulness
that November always brings.
We've all been thoroughly wrapped
up in the plague this year, almost to
the exclusion of anything else. The
lesson I'm taking away from that is
two fold.
The first is . . . It's people that truly
matter, far more than any other kind
of wealth. We are rich in our family
and friends; it's what matters most.
Secondly, simple is best. I am a
master of the complicated; make
no mistake. I don't want to do that
anymore. It's taken me 70 years
to learn that all time wisdom . . .
"Slow down and smell the roses!"
Whatever time allotted me, I want
to enjoy every moment. I need to
spend precious hours with my
family and friends. I pray I keep
my priorities straight!
love people like things
family friends matter most
honor each other
