Trifextra: Week Sixty-Two …

April 7, 2013

For his Trifextra weekend challenge, we were asked give thirty-three words of advice. Here is my attempt … 

 

‘Anger, fear, sadness and joy, among other feelings are like friends with whom you have little more than a nodding acquaintance.  While you observe their existence, you may not invite them to stay’.

    While you observe their existence, you may not invite them to stay = AWESOME! I so love this last line… 🙂 Thanks for making me smile!

    Oh, I love the idea of these feelings being, like Barbara said, unwanted house guests.

    This is good advice for a stewer like me. I am prone to dwell on what I can’t change.
