Favorite things to wear… right now, where I live it is snowing. I love sweater weather and here we are… but also I recently moved, and while we’re making progress, I still have a lot of things packed up. And I realized that somehow after paring down my wardrobe again and again, I have one sweater left.
But two of my very favorite things to wear these days (as corny as it sounds lol) are a smile and some humility. Have you ever seen the change in someone’s face when you give them a smile? In this day and age, when there is so much going on around the world, and we are practically blasted, non-stop, with negative news, showing a little kindness to each other can be a game-changer.
Humility is the other thing that I try to remember to put on in the morning. A dear friend explained it to me like this- I am no better and no worse than anyone else. Growing up, I always felt like I had to do better, even when I was getting good grades and doing well. The best we can do is good enough. And we can only do as well as we know how.
“When I know better, I do better.”
This is another saying I’ve heard through the years… and sometimes we have to make the same mistake more than once because we haven’t really learned the lesson yet. But that’s what life is all about. We’re all life learners whether we realize it or not.
Maybe where you live, you’re putting on shorts and a t-shirt today. Me, I’m going to find some warm pants and a sweatshirt!
