"I believe in kindness, also
in mischief." ~Mary Oliver
Words to live by, make no
mistake. I have sinned on the
side of being way too serious.
No, that's not quite right. I've
had plenty of laughs and loads
of fun in my life. It's just that
my nature leans towards the
ultra serious.
The kind of mischief I enjoy
getting into has something to
do with spending time with
my girlfriends. We can do that
whole, "eat, drink and be merry"
thing even better than the guys!
Now that I think about it, might
have to do with that whole Libra
thing . . . serious on one side and
mischief on the other!
Let's remember that how we treat
people has to do with a reflection
of oneself, not others!
Kindness . . . every time, all
the time, no exceptions . . .
never, ever!
