Something that was sent to use by a close friend.
"A house becomes a home when you can write "I love you" on the furniture."
I can't tell you how many countless hours that I have spent CLEANING!
I used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just
perfect - "in case someone came over". Then I realized one day that no one
came over; they were all out living life and having fun!
Now, when people visit, I find no need to explain the "condition" of
my home. They are more interested in hearing about the things I've been
doing
while I was away living life and having fun. If you haven't figured this
out
yet, please heed this advice.
Life is short. Enjoy it!
Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better, to paint a picture or
write a letter, bake a cake or plant a seed, ponder the difference between
want and need?
Dust if you must, but there's not much time, with rivers to swim and
mountains to climb, music to hear and books to read, friends to cherish and
life to lead.
Dust if you must, but the world's out there with the sun in your
eyes,
the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain. This day will
not
come around again.
Dust if you must, but bear in mind, old age will come and it's not
kind. And when you go - and go you must - you, yourself, will make more
dust!
Share this with all the wonderful women in your life!
