Digging out of a slump slowly,
will I be rejected or accepted?
Does it matter, is my life to be lived
dependent on the whims of others?
I certainly hope not, that puts them
in charge of me and under their control.
ACT don't REACT; take the lessons given.
I did this week receive a lovely thank you note from my friend Caryn's son who stayed in our guest casita after the holidays while Caryn's large family were filling her small rental home to overflowing. He said:
Lin, I want to express my sincerest gratitude for you in sharing your place with me these past several days. It was a kindness I will long remember. I wish also to thank you for the friendship you have shown toward my mother. I have heard your name spoken quite highly of on more than one occasion. Again thank you for all you are and have done. Dallin
How sweet-we all need to write more thank you notes and be concerned with building up one another with acceptance and value through our interactions.
