Something to Think About

I got this statement as part of an email from my friend Lynnette.  It really hit home with me, as far as past relationships are concerned.  I know many out there in J-Land are struggling in relationship issues. We need to remember to take care of ourselves in the new year.... So let me just take a moment to share this thought with you;

"NEVER MAKE SOMEONE A PRIORITY IN YOUR LIFE WHEN THEY HAVE ONLY MADE YOU AN OPTION IN THEIRS..."

How perfectly stated is this sentiment, and how often we find it in our lives without doing something about it.  Thank you Linda, and may your next year of life bring  smiling days and awe-filled nights.  You're a sweetheart.  xoxo CATHY

That is definetly a quote to live by! It makes me think of some relationships in my life where in the past I feel friends have just made an *opinion* of me. When I tried so hard to make them a priority in my life. If it's ok with you I'd like to borrow this quote as part of my signature & who to give credit to. Just let me know if that's all right Ü.

This makes complete sense Ü. Thanks for sharing.

We just had our New Year firework, one big bang, here in Lawton, Oklahoma.  I know it is a while until Washington State hits 12:00 midnight, so Happy New Year from another Linda across the way.

Interesting words that require some thought.  Thanks for sharing!  I think we need to take care of ourselves if we want to be healthy enough to take care of anyone else, mentally and physically.  Happy New Year Linda!  Thanks for all your special thoughts and writings in this past year and taking us with you on all your journeys!
I've enjoyed them immensely!
